Description

CELERY
(CONTINUED.)
oz. for 2,000
plants.
To EVERY CUSTOMER for CELERY SEED
we will send free, if asked for,
oar new pamphlet, "CELERY CULTURE for HOME and MARKET."
HENDERSON'S GOLDEN ROSE. Golden Eose is a ^^_^
development of the favorite Golden Self-blanching, and "^
shows its parentage in its strong habit of growth, while ^p^:
its self-blanching character is strongly fixed. The plant *-
is dwarf and heavy, the stalks are very broad and solid,
and are also entirely free from those objectionable
ridges which generally accompany stringiness ; indeed,
there is so little string that the stalks are positively
brittle. The general color is about identical with Gold-
en Self-blanching, except that the naturally golden-
colored stalks are suffused with a warm, rosy hue, "*
which gradually fades towards the top of the stalks,
where it assumes a bright. golden color when properly
blanched and fit for the table. The unique combination
of color makes it exquisitely beautiful in appearance, and its self-
blanching habit assures its earliness, while its hardiness and solidity
bespeak its ability to keep for a considerable time. (See cut.) 10c.
pkt., 40c. oz., $1:251^ lb.
•■ I raised quite a little of rovr Golden Rose Celery this year and must say that
it is everything you claim."— GEORGE BRADFORD, Kalamazoo, Micb.
GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING. A most valuable variety, partaking
of the character of the celebrated White Plume, inasmuch as it simply
needs a slight earthing up or " handling." It is of a beautiful waxy
golden color, very solid, and of a rich, nutty flavor. 10c. pkt., 50c.
oz., $1.75 1^ lb., S6.00 lb.
'• The seed that I received from you this sprinp was very satisfactory; and I was
very much pleased with the Golden Self-blanching Celery. It grew the purest and
handsomest Celery I ever saw, and I would like some more of the same seed."
THOM.iS n'pOD, Swansea, Mass.
'■ I hope the Golden Self-blanching Celery will be as good astheVt lb. bought from
von last spring. I set T,200 plants and each niadea head and each was self-blanching.
You never sa w a prettier picture, 7,200 Golden Self-blanching on a plot S2 by 38 feet."
March 20. 1S99. G. L. JOHNSOy, 128 W. Oneida St., Oswego. N. T.
GIANT PASCAL CELEBY
GIANT PASCAL. A green selection from the Golden Self-blanching
Celery, partaking of the best qualities of that variety, but is much larger
and a better keeper. It is of a fine, nutty flavor, being entirely free from
any bitter taste. It grows two feet high ; stalks broad, thick, crisp
and stringless ; the width and thickness of the stalks are distinctive
features of this variety. It bleaches with but slight "earthing up,"
and very quickly. A valuable variety for both second early and mid-
winter use. (See cut.) 10c. pkt., 30c. oz., 80e. 1-4 lb., $2.50 lb.
" Tour Giant Pascal Celery took the town — or rather, the town took the Celery.
It was considered the besfin our market : large, solid, white and crisp."
C.\L VIS S.UITH, Market Gardener, Xorwalk, Ct.
HENDERSON'S HALF D'WARF. Entirely solid, possessing a rich,
nutty flavor, while it has much vigor of growth, surpassing most of
the large-growing sorts in weight of bunch. 5c. pkt., 25c. oz., 75c.
1:^ lb.. $2..50 1b.
BOSTON MARKET. Similar to the Dwarf White, but rather more
robust. The leaves are a darker green, the stalks when blanched
being nearly white. It is an excellent variety, solid, crisp and tender.
5c. pkt., 25c. oz., 75c. X4 lb., $2.50 lb.
GIANT "WHITE SOLID. A large-growing sort, attaining a height,
under good cultivation, of 3 feet. This variety is most suitable for
southern sections of the country, as it grows freely in hot or dry at-
mosphere. 5c. pkt., 20c. oz., 60c. I4 lb., $2.00 lb.
HENDERSON'S DWARF WHITE. This variety is perfectly solid,
the stalks half-round. When blanched is a yellowish white, crisp,
tender, and of fine flavor. 5c. pkt., 25c. oz., 75c. 3^ lb., $2.50 lb.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
