Sea Celery, "Apium prostratum", is a variable herb native to coastal Australia.

The leaves are variable, with toothed leaflets, and a celery like aroma. [ Low,T., "Wild Food Plants of Australia", 1988. ISBN 0-207-16930-6]

Uses

Sea celery was commonly eaten by colonialists as a survival food in the early days of the Sydney colony. It tastes much the same as celery and is used to flavor soups.
