While the recent late frosts have not been so kind to my beans, the Horseradish on the allotment continues to thrive.

Here you can see the Main plant, luxuriating in the morning sun, and down there in the foreground and some new offshoots, making an excellent first impression.

This is pleasing, because the advice for harvesting horseradish in the autumn is to dig up and divide the main root before replanting. I did just that last year, when the plant was new and before it had any children, and I was worried it might not survive as I took almost all of it - but survive it has. I'm confident now I can do the same this year, leave the children entirely, and look forward to an even more abundant harvest next year. Saucy.

This is how you win at gardening, my friends.
