Through the years celery has been used to lower blood pressure and even treat gout. One thing for sure it is high in fiber. Celery is also used as a delivery system for peanut butter. Perhaps that cancels out the health benefits.

When you grow your own celery you will have a sweet more tender experience.

It is not difficult to grow but it prefers a moderate climate.

You can harvest the the leaves at an early stage or wait for the stalk.

If you mound soil around it as it grows you can keep it white and exotic.
