One of the things that comes back every year and does well for me is
leaf celery. Found in many of the seed catalogs. Stalk celery doesn't
grow well here but I've found the leaf celery adds the wanted flavor to
stews, soups, and even salads.



Leaf celery? Do you mean lovage?


Nope, leaf celery. I think I bought my seed from Johnny's Seeds in Maine
but it could have been some other seedsman. Not lovage at all, very
clearly labelled as leaf celery. Leaves look like celery, smells like
celery, tastes like celery. A Google search should turn up someone with
the seeds plus several descriptions of the plant.
