VEGETABLES / CELERY
A red celery. Stalks are dark green with medium to dark red pigmentation, especially on inner stalks. Stalks are mostly hollow, but a few are solid. About 10% of plants in 2016 Heritage Farm planting were solid green, which may be due to traditional breeding practices used to maintain the vigor of the variety. Leaves are dark green with some red hues, especially after frost. Dense foliage. Stalks and foliage are intensely flavored and dry and stringy compared to modern varieties; best suited for soups, or perhaps celery straws for Bloody Marys. Plants reach 2.3-2.7' tall.
