I looked for this when I bought seeds this year, but I'm not
sure that I bought the right thing. This is what I bought
(from Baker Creek):
--------------------
Zwolsche Krul New!
A leaf celery that looks like curly parsley. Very
ornamental; much stronger flavor than regular celery; used
as a culinary and ornamental herb. This is an old Dutch
heirloom that can grow to 3'. Very hardy.
---------------------
Is this what you mean? Thanks.
