Horseradish (Amoracia rusticana)

Exposure: Full sun to light shade.

Soil: Will grow in most garden soils.

Growth habits: A tap-rooted perennial, horseradish produces straplike leaves up to 3 feet long from a central crown. Plant it where you want it as horseradish is challenging to eliminate once established.

Landscape uses: Use as a garden perennial vegetable or as a tap-rooted companion plant for fruit trees.

Edible/Medicinal properties: Horseradish has edible leaves that can be cooked similarly to kale. It also has a pungent root that makes pungent sauces. The root is antibiotic, fungicidal, expectorant, and good for treating allergies, sinus problems, colds, and flus.
