Horseradish
I am thinking of growing Horseradish but I am struggling to find a supplier. Can anyone recommend a source?
Any advice on growing it would also be welcome. Thanks Mark |

I wouldn't worry - it's *stopping* it growing that's tricky! Thanks Mark -- If you sit down at a poker game and don't see a sucker, get up. You're the sucker. |

Ignore the maniacal laughter as you leave, roots in hand. Before planting, find a Star Trek fan who can loan you a copy of "The Trouble with Tribbles." If that doesn't put you off, plant the root cuttings just under the surface in a damp place and stand back. You're welcome to a few hundred of mine, but I'm across a largish pond from most of the group.

You can of course locate someone who has some, go and see them, check it IS horseradish, dig it up and bring it home. Or you can spend under 2 pounds in Wilkinsons while doing other shopping. Your choice Never heard of Wilkinsons. Not all chains are nationwide. Their trucks certainly are, though.
