We had a whale of a time trialing this celeriac, which impressed us two years in a row. Slightly oblong 3–4" roots have nice mild flavor and dense white interiors that resist hollow heart and pithiness. Plants are vigorous and upright with improved bolt tolerance. We know not all that may be coming, but with these great white roots tucked into the root cellar, we’ll go to it laughing. Seed may have an organically certifiable coating.
Items shipping from our garden seeds warehouse take 1-3 business days to process.

The frog prince of root vegetables, celeriac is a staple in central and eastern Europe. Also called knob celery and celery root. Easier to grow than celery; an early start indoors is essential for good yields. Its nutty parsley-celery flavor is improved by light fall frosts. Can be stored up to 6 months in moist sand or damp leaves in the root cellar. Great raw for winter slaws and salads, it may be boiled, mashed or braised to enhance meat, fish and poultry.
Culture: Must be started indoors in early spring, 10–12 weeks before transplant. Minimum germination temperature 40°, optimal range 70–75°, needs fluctuating temperatures. After germination, ambient air temperatures can be reduced but remain above 55° until transplanting. For one week prior to transplanting, go light on watering. Transplant outdoors when daytime temperatures are above 55° and the nights do not dip below 40°. Virginian Pam Dawling suggests that falling apple blossoms are a good phenological sign that transplanting time for these crops has arrived. Young seedlings grow slowly, requiring rich moist soil to survive. Regular rainfall or irrigation is necessary for good growth, flavor and yields. Celery withstands light fall frosts but is killed by serious cold.
