Self-Blanching Celery. 
This is the best celery in cultivation for market gardeners, 
Since its introduction, in 1884, it has been steadiiy increasing ; 
in sales, until now it is the main early celery raised by market 
gardeners in the vicinity of Baltimore. The beautiful appear- 
ance of the plant, with its close habit, compact growth and 4 
straight, vigorous stalks, is faithfully shown in the illustra- :

tion. The ribs are perfectly solid, crisp, brittle and of delic- 
ious flavor when blanched with earth; but when the blanch- 
ing is done with boards it is apt to be more stringy. It is 
self-blanching to a very remarkable degree, for without bank- 
ing up or any covering whatever even the outer ribs become 
a handsome, fresh, yellowish white color. The heart is large 
and solid and of a beautiful, rich, golden yellow color. No | 
variety can surpass it, indeed equal the French Golden.
