Normally my parsley turns to mush over the winter but our very mild weather this past winter allowed one of my plants to pull through. I've taken full advantage by letting it go to seed - good thing too as my seeds were a few years old and I wasn't sure I'd be able to get my hands on the same variety again.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-83782313398412516522016-09-17T07:49:29.386+01:002016-09-17T07:49:29.386+01:00That's why I don't normally like Celery - ...That's why I don't normally like Celery - it's often stringy and sometimes bitter. I just put a couple of leaves of Leaf Celery in a soup or stock and fish them out just before serving. I don't think Lovage would be appropriate in my small garden!Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-81993601751240301812016-09-17T07:47:35.979+01:002016-09-17T07:47:35.979+01:00Yes, I think I might.

Huge, huge beast of a plant and I think is perennial if you wanted something similar that lasts. I like Celery, taste and texture, and grew Giant Red this year - although it is a disappointment as it is so stringy. Was said to be soup celery and it will make excellent soup but I had hoped to eat it raw.Andyhttp://ourlittlefield.blogspot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-62762201507374901222016-09-16T20:11:58.257+01:002016-09-16T20:11:58.257+01:00Will you sow some fresh seed straight away?Will you sow some fresh seed straight away?Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.com
