Large mat (Edgewater)
Hello, Somebody posted some mat tiles on here a few weeks ago— I was intrigued but only realized this week: It’s exactly what I need😹 I have a 6 x 8‘ area I’m trying to cover with a mat maybe about a half an inch thick. I know I think I probably missed the boat on this, but if anybody’s out there with something similar, please reach out. My thanks!

Horseradish (Palatine)
Does anyone grow their own horseradish that would be willing to share a root with me and maybe offer any tips on how to grow this stuff, please? I've planted roots in a huge pot the last two years around October or November and nothing ever came up. I even covered it with wire mesh so I know squirrels didn't steal it. I just don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I hear it can be invasive. I can't even get it to grow! 😂 BTW, I am a long time gardener. Just can't grow horseradish.
