Celeriac (Celery Root) Seeds

Celeriac, or celery root, is the unsung hero of the winter kitchen. Underneath its gnarly skin is creamy white flesh with a clean celery flavor that's great mashed with potatoes, roasted, or shredded raw into remoulade. It's also a keeper, holding for months in a root cellar. Plants need a long season, about 100 days from transplant, so start seed indoors 10 to 12 weeks before your last frost. Keep them evenly watered. Brilliant, Mars, Athos, and the hybrid Balena form smooth, round roots, and several are organic.
