Secretly Growing in the Garden

Will discovered this growing in the Victory Garden! We did plant "it" and then forgot where we planted it (very typical of us). Today, he was looking at the mess that is the Victory Garden-- a mess because the nasturtiums have taken over and it looks quite pretty--and noticed these different leaves.

He rubbed the leaves together and smelled his fingers: not a herb. So, my intrepid gardener decides to break off and eat a stalk! And to his pleasant surprise: celery.

We found three other places where is it growing. It isn't as white and thick as what you get in the stores, but it has a stronger taste. A bit sour, so it may not be quite ready. We now have to do some research to see about harvesting times for celery.
