Celery
Although one of the more difficult crops to grow at home, celery always has a place in our gardens because it’s so useful in the kitchen—for stews, stir-fries, soups and salads.
This cool-weather, long-season crop can require up to 140 days to come to harvest although short-season varieties are available. Celery is considered a hardy biennial, but it’s typically grown as an annual for its edible 12- to 18-inch stalks. Celery is considered a relatively difficult crop as plant is prone to bolting in cold weather.
