Default Rhubarb in pots?

Best Rhubarb I ever had was growing in a North west facing corner where I
tipped all the grass clippings, and where it got flooded every time we
emptied the bath.
Rhubarb is better in a damp spot than in a sunny, dry place,

Just as well it is in a tub this time! It looks like the rhubarb will be packing
its suitcase and heading to a North West corner - and it will be watered even

I suppose it makes sense about preferring the damp - its majestic cousin the
Gunnera is grown as a marginal around ponds.
