Hi everybody,

I am looking to grow some horseradish in containers (to control it)
but cant find anybody selling seeds or plants. Can anybodt suggest
anything?

I understand that the leaves are poisonouos. Can they be used in the
compost heap?

Thanks

I have seen horseradish plants in garden centres - but maybe not at this
time of year.

However, in most limestone areas in England, there is a ready supply of
plants growing wild.

I don't know about the leaves being poisonous - having never eaten them -
but I compost them and have never had any problems.

regards
Don
