My regrown celery is doing so well. For those of you who are new, I started regrowing celery from a cut stalk last month, and blogged about it here:

Here are a few photos showing it's progression. It started out as a flat white end piece with absolutely no green, and no raised parts. It was half frozen and I didn't think it would work, but it surprised me.

As you can see, the celery is doing great. That last photo was taken today. I should have written down the dates of the photos, but so far, it's been about a month since I started. The new celery stalks are getting thicker, and there are more of them. The leafy tops are a nice, healthy green. It seems to enjoy being potted, and it seems to enjoy that sunny spot on the window sill. I'm very pleased with how it's doing. It was a fun experiment, and it will be interesting to see how big it will get. I wonder if it will get big enough to eat again? If so, it will be like getting a free stalk of celery, lol. That could cut down on groceries, sort of like a buy one get one free deal!
