Horseradish Roots Natural, 1/2 pound/8 ounces,(USA Only,Can Not be shipped internationally) Ready For Planting or Preparing As Sauces or Dressings etc. JACOBS LADDER

I purchased this as an homage to my father, who grew horseradish. When he did. it grew all over the yard because it wasn't contained in any way. He passed away and for the next couple decades, my mother pulled it up whenever and wherever it came up. Many people have complained about this product not growing or whatever. My root came wrapped nicely. I took it out of the supplied wrapping, cleaned it and wrapped it in a damp paper towel in a plastic bag and set it in a cool area. A few days later, I put the root in a flower pot. The pot was set on some seed heating mats along with the other seeds I am growing. Three days later there was a little spike of green leaf. More have followed and now there are lots of leaves which would seem to indicate healthy growth. Right now there are leaves that are over 6 inches tall and "baby" leaves continue to pop up. In the midst of the "snowmagedden" that struck the east coast, this horseradish plant has been a welcome sign of life and the spring to come. I am more than satisfied and can't wait to see the whole thing grow bigger, eventual harvest and use. Dad would be happy.

Good size, planted and growing

Bought some of this horseradish about six months ago. Trimmed the ends ever so slightly, and planted them(mid March) about four inches in the soil. All pieces did very well and I plan on digging one up in January to satisfy my curiosity. I will buy more if needed, and I recommend. Will update with the taste when possible.

All of the roots are growing! This is in spite of a very ruthless deer digging the roots up on four separate occasions to sample them...

Good quality, fresh , fast delivery

It smelled very pungent but that's not what I wanted it for. I wanted to grow it. So now it's has been over 10 days and I planted them. I put one straight up, one on its side, and two at an angle. However, I believe it takes a month or so to grow. I can't really rate it. After almost two weeks the 1 root has started to sprout. I consider that a success. So I give it 4 stars. If more come up I will rerate it to 5.

I bought this to plant in my garden to start a horseradish patch and so far it is growing nicely.

I planted two roots on July 16. I took photos of the sprouted plants on July 17 and 21.

Was moldy should have returned it

I am a fairly experienced gardener and I was very disappointed that the piece sent to me was large old and woody and simply rotted in the ground. It is a pity as I wanted a horseradish plant.
