Celery Pascal Golden is a non-GMO heirloom grown for crisp stalks with mild, subtly sweet flavor. Enjoy your harvest fresh in salads, chopped into soups or gently braised for a tender side dish. Each packet contains 500 seeds for planting. Allow approximately 100 days under favorable conditions, with timing affected by planting method and weather.

Celery rewards patient care and steady moisture. Prepare fertile soil, give seedlings time to establish and keep plants growing evenly rather than cycling between drought and saturation. Harvest individual outer stalks as needed or cut the whole plant when it reaches a useful size. The kitchen possibilities extend well beyond a soup base: try the lemon-thyme braised celery recipe below.

Germination Rate: 96%. Test Date: 10/25. TLM.

Texas Minimum Germination Rate: 55%

Why Choose Celery Pascal Golden?

Planting Tips for Success

• Site: Choose full sun and fertile, well-drained soil that retains moisture.
• Seed Starting: Start indoors approximately 10–12 weeks before transplanting. Press tiny seeds onto the surface or cover only lightly according to packet directions.
• Germination: Maintain even moisture without waterlogging and be patient with slow emergence.
• Transplanting: Harden seedlings gradually and follow local guidance for moving plants outdoors after hard-frost danger.
• Spacing: Follow packet recommendations, leaving room for stalk development and airflow.
• Feeding: Use compost and fertilizer based on soil needs and label rates to support steady growth.
• Watering: Water consistently and mulch around plants without burying crowns. Avoid allowing soil to dry severely.
• Support and Weeding: Staking is generally unnecessary. Weed gently around shallow roots.
• Harvest: Cut useful-sized outer stalks or harvest the whole plant. Rinse harvested stalks thoroughly and refrigerate.

Lemon-Thyme Braised Pascal Golden Celery

Use harvested celery stalks, not planting seeds. Serves 4 as a side. Prep: 15 minutes. Cook: 20–25 minutes.

Ingredients

• 1 pound harvested Pascal Golden celery stalks
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• ¾ cup reduced-sodium vegetable broth
• ½ teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, or a pinch of dried thyme
• ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• Salt to taste, added after cooking

Directions

1. Separate celery stalks, trim damaged ends and rinse thoroughly under running water, especially inside the grooves. Remove tough strings if needed. Cut into approximately 3-inch lengths, splitting very wide pieces lengthwise.
2. Heat olive oil and butter in a wide skillet over medium heat. Add celery and cook for 4–5 minutes, turning occasionally, until lightly colored.
3. Add garlic and stir for 30 seconds. Pour in broth and add thyme and pepper.
4. Cover, reduce heat and simmer gently for 12–18 minutes until stalks are tender. Add a splash of broth if the pan becomes dry.
5. Uncover and simmer briefly if excess liquid remains. Stir in lemon juice, taste before adding salt and serve warm with a little cooking liquid.

Options: Replace butter with another tablespoon of olive oil for a vegan version. Finish with chopped celery leaves or parsley.

Storage and Food Safety: Refrigerate leftovers in a shallow covered container within 2 hours, or within 1 hour above 90°F. Use within 3–4 days and reheat to 165°F.
