Description

Celery 'Tall Utah' (Apium graveolens var. dulce), also known as Tall Utah 52-70, is a classic open-pollinated heirloom selection celebrated for its long, crisp, sweet stalks and reliable performance. Growing into tightly packed, upright stalks reaching 18 to 24 inches in height, it features thick, dark green, stringless ribs topped with fragrant green foliage. Possessing a rich, aromatic celery flavor without bitter undertones, Tall Utah holds its crisp texture extremely well throughout harvest. An essential garden staple, it is ideal for fresh snacking, dipping, mirepoix bases, soups, stews, and juicing.
