Description

Celery‑root, also named celeriac, is a unique cool‑season biennial root‑type celery variant. Unlike common stalk celery, it develops a large, round, fragrant fleshy underground root and shallow lobed green leaves. The aromatic root is widely used for stews, salads and cooking. It suits home‑garden planting, commercial farm cultivation and fresh edible‑root production.

Key Features

Forms big round‑shaped aromatic fleshy underground root
Delicate celery‑like flavour, roots and young leaves are both edible
Strong cold‑resistance, suitable for cool‑climate growing environments
Good tolerance against common root‑rot and leaf‑spot plant diseases
Long storage life after autumn root harvest
Fine‑grained screened seeds with low impurities and stable germination performance

Full Product Description

Celeriac belongs to the Apiaceae celery family. It prioritizes the growth of a bulky knobbly underground root instead of thick leaf stalks. Its distinct mild celery‑aromatic flesh is popular in European‑style cuisine.

This cool‑loving crop thrives in sunny locations, nutrient‑rich loose moist soil. Our celery‑root seeds are strictly screened to remove shrivelled and broken seeds for uniform seedling emergence.

Packaging & Shipping Notes

Tiny celeriac seeds are sealed inside thick leak‑proof moisture‑proof inner bags. Outer hard cartons and soft shock‑absorbing fillers prevent fine‑seed loss and grain damage during long‑distance shipment.

Packages stay away from high‑temperature sealed cargo compartments, damp surroundings and prolonged direct sunlight to preserve seed vitality. After receiving the parcel, inspect seeds timely. Reseal leftover seeds tightly and keep away from hot‑humid enclosed‑space.

Planting Guide

Best Sowing Season

Sow indoors 8‑10 weeks before the last spring frost; outdoor sowing can be carried out in early spring. Cold‑stratification improves germination rates.

Seed Pre‑Treatment

Soak tiny seeds in clean room‑temperature water for 12‑24 hours
Perform 25‑30‑day cold stratification to break seed dormancy
Mix fine seeds with dry fine sand for even broadcasting

Soil Requirement

Remove stones and weeds, deeply loosen planting ground. Humus‑rich, fertile, moist sandy‑loam is ideal; heavy clay and water‑logged low‑lying land are unsuitable.

Sowing Operation

Spread the sand‑seed mixture evenly, cover with an ultra‑thin 0.05‑0.15‑inch layer of fine soil and gently compress the topsoil.

Germination & Seedling Care

Keep top‑layer soil consistently damp. Seeds germinate within 14‑21 days at 15‑22℃. Thin seedlings and transplant robust sprouts, keep weeds cleared in early‑stage growth.

Daily‑care for Mature Plants

Grow under full sunlight. Maintain steady soil moisture without waterlogging. Add potassium‑rich fertilizer to boost root swelling. Harvest the bulky root in late autumn before heavy frost arrives.

Seed Storage & Package

Moisture‑proof sealed packaging protects seeds against dampness, mould and transit‑caused damage.

Store leftover seeds in cool, dry, shaded and well‑ventilated locations. Refrigerate for long‑time storage and stay away from high‑temperature humid air. Sow seeds within three‑month storage for the optimal germination‑rate.
