Athos
Athos is a short stemmed celeriac variety with oval-shaped tubers. High tuber position and a small root base making it easy to harvest. Also suitable for early planting. High yield potential due to heavy weight of individual tubers. Suitable for bunching too. Strong and aromatic celery flavour. Check availability of pelleted form (primed) online.
