"Dan Welch" wrote in message , I'd like to grow horseradish but have never seen plants / seeds for sale. Any ideas where I might be able to get hold of one or the other? All help appreciated cheers Careful Dan, it can take over and is difficult to dig out, it having such long roots. Planted it once but I would think seriously before I did it again. Probably be OK in an island bed surrounded by grass which gets cut so it can't invade. What will it be like in, say, a 9" pot? Short? How about in a longer piece of plastic drain pipe? How long are those roots then? Franz I've read about 2ft. 3 weeks ago I got hold of 2 horseradish plants. Put it in a bed in a not-much-used corner of my allotment. Did some reading up about it..... Last weekend I lifted it again (careful not dig well under and around it) and re-planted it in a full-size-cheapo-wickes-dustbin (minus the bottom, cut out for drainage) that I'd just sunk in the ground. I don't think we will eat enough horseradish in all of our remaining years to warrant anything like it. We'll just have to go on buying it at the grocer. {:-)) be careful not to chuck leftovers in the garden :-) |
