We did the same and it also bolted. But no downside as quite apart from a lovely display of flowers it gave a nice shield for the runner beans next to them. The flower heads are now full of seeds so we’ve collected a big bag ready for next season (to plant up in another section.) There’s going to be loads of self seeding anyway as I’d like to leave the plants up for as long as possible, too nice to cut down and they make a lovely rustling noise. So maybe plant a row from the seeds and leave a row in place if you’ve space?
Edit. Celery on the right hand side in the pic

I struggled to grow celery last year. It just flopped about and did look appetising. So we left it in the ground. Naturally it bolted and is now about 4 ft tall.
I won’t be eating it because it’s going to be horrible. My question is if I let it seed will the seed fall to the ground then grow celery next year?
