  • Species and varieties: Root celery, also known as celeriac (Apium graveolens var. rapaceum), is a variety of celery cultivated for its edible root. Popular varieties include 'Giant Prague', 'Brilliant', and 'Monarch'.
  • Hybrid or heirloom: Root celery seeds can be found in both hybrid and heirloom varieties. Heirloom varieties are often preferred for their rich flavor and historical significance, while hybrids may offer improved disease resistance and uniformity.
  • Pruning and training: Root celery does not require extensive pruning. However, removing any yellowing or damaged leaves can help maintain plant health. Ensure the root remains covered with soil to prevent it from becoming green and bitter.
  • Fertilization needs: Root celery benefits from a balanced fertilizer rich in organic matter. Apply a complete fertilizer at planting and side-dress with compost or a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Avoid excessive nitrogen, as it can lead to lush foliage at the expense of root development.
  • Hardiness zones: Root celery is suitable for USDA hardiness zones 3-8. It thrives in cooler climates and can tolerate light frosts.
  • Climate requirements: Root celery prefers a cool, moist climate with temperatures ranging between 60-70°F (15-21°C). It requires a long growing season of about 120-150 days and performs best in well-drained, fertile soil with consistent moisture.
