Usha, yesterday I bought some horseradish plants in Swanbourne, right next to the Swanbourne train station. I am so excited, I've been looking for it for years!

Most European/Italian greengrocers will have it just now.Bought 100gm Tues.@$39.00 p kg. Most to grow in old holey buckets, H/radish can dry out quite quickly if not mulched. Keep eyes on leaqves, some pest find them quite yummy. Keep healthy.

Can anyone please tell me where I can buy fresh horseradish. I'd like to grow some in my garden and I live in Perth.

Yes, ours certainly seems to be stronger after a second year but the roots are very spindly and they are not easy to peel. Any tips on growing a thicker root? However, to make the sauce and not being too keen on hand grating, I first grated the root with the food processor. This gave thin matchsticks but also lots of lumps, then I added some vinegar and used the chopper to cut it finer and it worked well. I also added some hot mustard to give it a bit more zing.

Hello Brian, I would say yes, as I have mine planted in a big 42 cm wide pot but did not move it into "winter quarters" as I do with my Kaffir Lime potted tree, it showed no damage over the years, Happy gardening Jen
