General Information: Tourne-Sol Chinese Pink Celery is a specialty celery variety grown primarily for its thin, tender stalks and pronounced celery flavour rather than large ribs. The stalks develop a distinctive pink blush, especially in cool conditions. It prefers consistently moist, fertile soil high in organic matter and performs best in cool weather. This variety is well suited to market gardens and home gardens where unique flavour and appearance are valued.
