Cutting Celery Plants

Apium graveolens

Enjoy fresh celery flavor without growing a full-sized bunch of stalk celery. Also known as leaf celery or soup celery, Cutting Celery produces aromatic green leaves and slender stems that are easy to snip for everyday cooking.

Big Flavor from a Small Harvest

Add chopped leaves and tender stems to soups, stews, stocks, sauces, and salads. Its concentrated celery flavor makes a little go a long way—start with a small amount and adjust to taste.

Although its leafy appearance may resemble parsley, Cutting Celery brings its own distinctly savory celery flavor to the kitchen. Grow it near your cooking herbs for a convenient supply of fresh seasoning.

Growing Cutting Celery

  • Light: Full sun to partial shade. Afternoon shade can be helpful during hot weather.
  • Soil: Choose fertile, well-drained soil enriched with compost.
  • Water: Keep the soil consistently moist without leaving it waterlogged. Avoid allowing the root ball to dry out completely.
  • Growth cycle: A biennial generally grown as an annual for its leaves and tender stems.
  • Containers: Use a pot with drainage holes and check moisture regularly, especially in warm weather.

Harvest a Little at a Time

Begin harvesting once your plant is established and growing well. Snip leaves and tender stems as needed, leaving healthy growth to support the next harvest. Harvest before flowering for the best leafy crop.

Uses & Inspiration

Fresh Ideas for Cutting Celery

Cutting Celery delivers familiar celery flavor through leafy growth and slender stems rather than thick, crunchy stalks. Its concentrated flavor makes a little go a long way.

  • Soups and stews: Add chopped leaves and tender stems for a savory celery note.
  • Homemade stock: Simmer whole sprigs with your other ingredients, then strain before serving.
  • Salads: Finely chop a few tender leaves into potato, bean, tuna, or chicken salad.
  • Sauces and dressings: Stir chopped leaves into vinaigrettes, yogurt sauces, or herb butter.
  • Finishing touch: Sprinkle fresh leaves over roasted vegetables, eggs, or grain dishes.

Rinse before use and discard tough stems. Start with a small amount and adjust to taste. Cutting Celery supplies celery flavor but will not replace the crunchy texture of stalk celery.
