What are the vegetables that grow in stems?

Stem Vegetables:

* Asparagus: The tender shoots are actually the stems of the plant.

* Celery: The stalk we eat is the stem of the celery plant.

* Rhubarb: The thick, edible stalks are technically petioles (leaf stalks), but they function as the stem.

* Kohlrabi: The swollen stem base is the edible part of this unique vegetable.

* Sugarcane: The stalk is a major source of sugar.

* Bamboo shoots: The edible shoots are young bamboo stems.

* Artichoke: The edible part is the bud, which is technically a large, modified leaf bud that grows at the tip of the stem.

Other Stem-Related Vegetables:

* Broccoli: The "head" of broccoli is actually a cluster of flower buds that develop on the stem.

* Cauliflower: Similar to broccoli, cauliflower's edible part is a cluster of immature flower buds that grow on a stem.

* Brussels sprouts: These small, green vegetables are actually buds that grow along the stem of the plant.
