Apium graveolens is a plant species in the family Apiaceae commonly known as celery (var. dulce) or celeriac (var. rapaceum), depending on whether the petioles (stalks) or roots are eaten: celery refers to the former and celeriac to the latter. Apium graveolens grows to 1 m tall. The leaves are pinnate to bipinnate leaves with rhombic leaflets 3–6 cm long and 2–4 cm broad. The flowers are creamy-white, 2–3 mm diameter, produced in dense compound umbels. The seeds are broad ovoid to globose, 1.5–2 mm long and wide.
First attested in English 1664, the word "celery" derives from the French céleri, in turn from Italian seleri, the plural of selero, which comes from Late Latin selinon, the latinisation of the Greek σέλινον (selinon), "parsley". The earliest attested form of the word is the Mycenaean Greek se-ri-no, written in Linear B syllabic script.
Celery was described by Carl von Linné in Volume One of his Species Plantarum in 1753.
The closely related Apium bermejoi from the island of Minorca is one of the rarest plants in Europe, with fewer than 100 individuals left.

Every time I look at you I feel my life's complete
Every time I'm captured by your smile
You are everything I've wanted
This is just the way I want my life to be
Oh yeah
Coming from two different worlds
I like cars and you like pearls
I like meat and you like celery
It doesn't matter anyway
If I'm night and you are day
We'll be together
We'll meet each other, half way
I'm gonna miss you even though you haven't even gone
Gonna miss you even though I'm lookin at you

That a second is a lifetime without you by my side
Every night I dream of you
A dream that is so real
I don't want the night to have an end
It's so wonderful to know that
When I wake up you'll be smiling up at me
Oh yeah

You like cold and I like heat
We're together and it works out fine
All we want is happiness
No more pain and no more stress
We'll be together we'll meet each other halfway
I'm gonna miss you even though you haven't even gone
Gonna miss you even though
I'm lookin at you

That a second is a lifetime without you by my side
Coming from two different worlds

I like meat and you like celery
It doesn't matter anyway if I'm night and you are day
We'll be together
We'll meet each other, half way
I'm gonna miss you even though you haven't even gone
Gonna miss you even though I'm lookin at you
