Description

Hornet Celery is a vigorous, high-yielding variety known for its crisp, tender stalks and excellent flavor. This variety produces uniform, upright plants with smooth, bright green stems, making it ideal for fresh eating, cooking, and juicing. A cool-season crop, it thrives in rich, moist soil and benefits from consistent watering for the best quality harvests. Celery requires regular watering to prevent bitterness and thrives when mulched to retain moisture. For extra-tender stalks, consider blanching by wrapping or shading the stems as they mature.
