This variety will grow well in most regions of the United States but is a slow grower and needs a long season or an early start indoors.
Instructions - Celery needs light to germinate so sow seeds very shallowly. In cool climates, sow indoors, then moisten and cover with clear plastic. When celery leaves begin to emerge, remove the plastic cover and place the container in a sunny spot, always keeping the soil moist. When there are two true leaves, transplant outside when the soil has warmed and night temperatures have been above 40°.
Start Indoors: 10-12 weeks before the last frost
Germination: 10-20 Days
Plant Outdoors: 8-10” Apart
Light: Full Sun or Partial Shade
