I just moved to central Illinois from California. I thought this plant was a giant weed, but I'm not sure. I was wondering if you can tell me what this is. Thank you.

I think it may be rhubarb. Give it some fertilizer and lots of water and you'll have some stems you can harvest for pie next spring! You don't want to cut the stems unless they're over an inch or so thick. That plant looks to have been neglected for a while and it's struggling. Just a little T L C is needed.

with Elaine. Looks like rhubarb to me, too.
