About Horseradish
Horseradish is a vigorous, nearly indestructible perennial grown for its pungent taproot — the fresh stuff blows store-bought away. Plant it where you want it to stay.
Plant root cuttings in spring, burying on a slight angle. Harvest roots in fall after a few frosts for best heat. It spreads — contain it in a pot or dedicated bed.
Gardening in Nevada
Nevada has an arid continental climate. Las Vegas is Zone 9a-9b; Reno is Zone 6b-7a; mountain areas are Zone 4-5. Low humidity means cool nights even in summer.
