I might try that-but right now I have problems with raspberries in my 
Peonies.
      
I am not so concerned about the Horseradish because it is in a raised bed and 
every few years I remove all the soil in that bed and replace it with new 
soil.  Were the Horseradish is growing I think I will have to put down a good 
grade of landscape cloth next time I replace the soil?

I am reminded of a story I was toiled this year by another vendor at the 
farmers market - He was shredding up compost to put out on one of his fields 
and by accident some horseradish went into the shredder.  He commented that 
he had 1/2 acre of small horseradish plants.  Since he is an organic grower 
he said that field would be horse radish for a long time.
