I've just dug some of my thugs from out the ground today. I'm moving the jerusalem artichokes to the very back of the plot and I'm putting in a horseradish this year too. They'll all be behind the compost bins out of the way and hopefully controlled by the concrete base they sit on...

I've been wondering if horseradish will grow in pots... so is that a yes then?

It's a no not really - it survives but you don't get thick enough roots to harvest - at least I certainly didn't - I got a totally tangled mess of thin roots - which is why I've 'released' it mwwhhhaaaahaaaaa
