Notes

'Cutting Celery' (Apium graveolens 'Cutting Celery') is an herb for food gardens and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It shrugs off cool spells and light frost, though a hard freeze will damage it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil. It is grown for its mild celery flavor. Green blooms open in spring and autumn, and they attract butterflies and bees.

Pairs well with Black Cherry tomato, Broccoli, and Chicory.
