Wild celery, also known as Apium graveolens, is a plant that grows in wetlands and along riverbanks. It is a close relative of the cultivated celery commonly found in grocery stores. Wild celery typically has a stronger flavor and can be found in various regions, particularly in Europe and North America. This plant features long, slender stalks and small white flowers that bloom in umbrella-shaped clusters. Wild celery is often used in traditional medicine and can be foraged for culinary purposes, adding a unique taste to salads and soups. Its natural habitat makes it an important part of wetland ecosystems.
