WANTED: Herb Celery

Posted by islandgirl QLD AUST (My Page) on

Anyone know where I can obtain plants or seeds of this interesting wild herb from England and Ireland. Tastes a bit like celery,but looks more like flat leaf parsley.( I think) Also Lovage plants or seeds.
Thanks.

Do you mean Celeriac? Has a large bulb at ground level which you can eat as a vegetable or use the tops in soups and stocks. It's a nice herb, mine died and I haven't bothered replacing it. I do grow lovage which is going brilliantly this year, but too early for flowering and seed. island girl, if you can find a celeriac bulb in a shop there's nothing stopping you planting it. Otherwise Renaissance herbs have it in their range.

Here is a link that might be useful: renaissance herbs webpage

Maybe you mean sea parsley? (Apium prostratum)

I think what you are looking for is called Leaf Celery or sometimes Chinese Celery. A google search came up with a few sources in AU.
