Known alternatively as ‘Pascal Giant,’ ‘Giant Pascal’ is a French heirloom variety that reaches a height of 2 feet. It features light green leaves and stems that are impressively thick, measuring 2 inches in diameter and boasting a nutty flavor. Due to the substantial size of the stems, it’s essential to ensure adequate watering to prevent hollowness or dryness in the plants. True to its name, this tall and crisp celery variety offers stringless, green stalks with tightly folded hearts and thick, well-rounded stems. Widely recognized as a favoured salad vegetable for its sweet and crisp stalks, celery also shines when braised or chopped into casseroles.
