Leaf Celery is an heirloom variety primarily grown for its leaves rather than the stalks, which are thinner and less flavorful compared to stalk varieties. The leaves offer a robust flavor, approximately four times stronger than traditional celery stalks. This strong flavor makes the leaves ideal for use as an herb, either fresh or dried, to enhance the taste of soups, stews, and other dishes. The compact nature of the plant allows for cultivation in smaller spaces and containers. Leaf Celery is a cut-and-come-again plant, meaning its fragrant leaves can be harvested multiple times throughout the growing season.
