The seed company offers three celeries bred for crisp, pale stalks.
Heirloom celeries often taste stronger than the common supermarket variety.
Note
A plural the word rarely needs, because celery is usually uncountable: whether you mean the plant, the vegetable or the yellow-green color, you buy some celery, not some celeries. The plural earns its place when the subject is kinds rather than amounts, as with heirloom celeries or several varieties compared side by side. For ordinary quantities, English counts the parts instead: three stalks of celery.
