How to Prune Wild celery?
(Apium graveolens)
Wild celery, also known as Celery
An herbaceous biennial, wild celery is distinguished by its aromatic leaves and crunchy stalks. For optimal growth, prune the outer stalks near the base, allowing younger stems to flourish. Timing is crucial; early spring through late summer is ideal, avoiding pruning during bolting. Regular trimming maintains plant shape, encourages new growth, and can enhance flavor. Consider harvesting outer stalks as a form of pruning, beneficial for both culinary use and plant health.
