| 78 days. If you haven't tasted Safir, it's fair to say you haven't really tasted Celery yet! This unusual variety boasts much more concentrated flavor in every stalk, for a bite that is not only crisp and refreshing but very peppery and zesty. And the tops are distinctive -- leafy and full, with an attractive presence that makes good filler for indoor arrangements and is quite long-lasting (several weeks!) in the vase. The plant measures about 12 to 14 inches high, with many slender stalks. A cutting type, it can be harvested as needed, so you never waste a bit! Use these flavor-packed stalks in soups and salads, sprinkle the colorful tops for garnish, or dry for use during the winter months. For best flavor and heaviest yields, keep Safir fed and watered well throughout the growth period. You will love the results! Packet is 250 seeds. |
