• Latin Name: Armoracia rusticana

• Facts of note: Plant in late winter to early spring in deep, coarse, well-drained soil. Grows best in cool areas. Expect a crop in about 1 year.

Note: Do not be alarmed if there is small amounts of bluish-white mold on your rootstock, this is absolutely normal. It occurs from the cold storage process used to keep the plants dormant. This mold can be wiped off and will not affect the health of the plant. However, if the plants are rotten and/or mushy, please give us a call.

Horseradish is a fast-growing perennial. After the first frost in the autumn kills the leaves, the root is dug and divided. The main root is harvested and one or more large offshoots of the main root are replanted to produce next year’s crop.

Horseradish left undisturbed in the garden spreads via underground shoots and will become invasive. Harvest thoroughly to prevent this. We also suggest growing horseradish in containers, such as Smart Pots.
