Celery Aritra

Aritra lettuce is a medium-early, stalked variety of celery, bred in the Netherlands, suitable for cultivation in open ground. The plant forms a lush, upright rosette about 50-60 cm tall, with smooth, long, sturdy dark-green stalks. The leaves are uniformly colored, aromatic, and have a mild aftertaste. The variety is characterized by uniformity, compactness, and the absence of lateral branches, which ensures good growth and an upright habit. The first internode is located at the top of the stem, which is typical for this variety. Aritra celery is highly resistant to leaf diseases and stress-tolerant, making it a reliable choice for cultivation. The vegetation period is 60-70 days, allowing for an early harvest. The plant responds well to moderate watering and requires timely weeding. To increase yield, fertilizers with high nitrogen content are recommended. The variety has high yield potential and is suitable for both fresh market sales and processing. This celery variety is valued for its excellent taste and market appearance. The stalks are straight, with slight indentations and no branches, making them easy to slice and use as seasoning. Aritra celery contains a high amount of vitamin C, essential oils, and beneficial microelements, providing diuretic and general strengthening effects. Due to these properties, it is beneficial for a wide range of consumers and is popular in culinary and healthy diets.
