My experience is that rhubarb is as virulent as convolvulus with the
exception that rhubarb is not poisonous


Virulent -- poisonous. OED

Quite!. Don't tether your goats on the grass verge where virulent
convolvulus creeper has clothed the hawthorn hedges otherwise you will
forfeit your rhubarb pie the next day, Your goats as well.
You could, of course have goat meat pie but I wouldn't advise it, - so
you'd have to dig a big hole instead.
