I have some horseradish roots! What do you have for trade? Yours, Sarah

You should be able to find horseradish roots in the produce section of a good grocery store. I have even soaked the roots that had shrived up to get them to sprout and grow. Once established they need to be thinned out every couple years for them to be fresh and not woody.

Hey fellow horseradishers!! albert135~thanks for sending the info from the pdf. I read through the information but it doesn't even mention the fact that horseradish flowers ... but I appreciate that you took the time to send me the info in html format cyrus_gardner- Mine was planted in July last summer so they've been in the ground for almost a year. I found them at a nursery. They were small but already had leaves so it was easy to plant. From what I read you should not have trouble seeing yours grow but take a browse through the info sent above for planting instructions ... I do know some people who treat them as annuals instead of letting them get invasive and well established. They can be hard to remove because just the tiniest piece(s) of root will grow. So be sure not to locate your plantings in an area of your garden that you might not want it 'forever'. I've read also that some people plant them using various methods to control their spread. Submerged containers being one of the ways. Good luck with yours. cassieinmass- I'm going to experiment. I've got 3 plants all planted at the same time and now very close to blooming. I'm going to remove the flower stalks from 2 and leave one to see how it affects their growth. Aside from my interest in their roots I'm also partial to the clumps of glossy green leaves they develop. My plants are not getting very bushy! Not how I remember horseradish to be as a kid. That's why I was wondering if removing the flower stocks would perhaps cause more leaf development as it does with rhubarb. I'm going to cut those stocks off now--------> snip snip

$1.50 sounds fair. Although if you are the only vendor with horseradish, you could probably bump it up a bit.
