The message
from "K" contains these words:

How late can rhubarb be planted and what varieties would urglers recommend?
I have room for only one crown.

I would say that by February you're pushing it.

Varieties? No idea what's available and I couldn't name you one. I do
know that most of the rhubarb I've grown was allegedly a 'Champagne' of
some ilk.

Rhubarb takes well to being grown in pots., and the best pots for the
job are those 20 gallon-ish drums with a wide mouth.

You can get drums (but not always wide-mouthed ones) from fire stations.
They come with a harmless foaming agent in.)
