CURRIE BROTHERS CO. MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN 
Golden Self-Blanching Celery. 
Celery is a crop that requires a very long season. 
If an early crop is to be grown from seeds, the latter 
must be started indoors in boxes about the last of Feb- 
ruary, the plants being set in the ground, six inches 
apart, in May. The crop should be ready in August. 
Celery for winter may be grown from seeds started in 
the open ground in late April, but it is advisable to have 
a seed bed and to transplant the seedlings to the open 
field when large enough. It is well to cut off the lower 
half of the roots at transplanting time, and firming the 
soil around the plants is very important. 
CELERY 
GOLDEN PHENOMENAL 
The general characteristics are those of Golden Plume, 
but it is decidedly taller and the stalks are much longer 
to the joint. It is practically as tall as the Tall strain of 
Golden Self-Blanching. The season for planting and ma- 
turity is the same as Golden Plume, being intermediate 
between Tall and Dwarf Golden Self-Blanching. The 
plants are heavy, compact and full hearted. The stems 
are broad and thick, brittle and free from strings. Of fine 
flavor and excellent quality all through. 
In other words, this is Golden Plume with all the good 
qualities of Golden Plume but in addition is taller with 
longer edible stems and the plants are more upright and 
more compact. The stock is very even and the plants 
very uniform in size and appearance.
