HENDERSON’S _, 
“Perfected White Plume” Celery. 
Introduced by us yearsago; time has proved it to be one of our most 
valuable contributions to horticulture. It is now more popular and 
more largely grown than all other varieties of celery combined. 
People who never grew celery before have no more trouble in growing 
and blanching Henderson’s White Plume Celery ready for the table 
than in growing ordinary garden vegetables, for no ‘‘banking up”’ is 
necessary. The peculiarity of this variety is that the stalk, portions of 
inner leaves and heart are white naturally, sothat by simply tying the 
plant together, or by drawing the soil against. it, pressing it with the 
hands and then repeating the operation to hold the soil already placed 
against the plant-in position, -the, work of blanching is completed. 
Henderson’s White Plume .Celery presents a-highly ornamental ap- 
pearance on the dinner table, and its erisp, succulent stalks and 
delicious flavor are unequaled by any vegetable grown. Unfortunately 
the variety has always had a tendency to revert to the old green type, 
and it has always produced a proportion of green plants, but péer- 
severing selection for years enables us now to offer an almost abso- 
lutely pure stock, so superior that we feel justified in calling it 
“Henderson’s Perfected White Plume.” (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 
35c. oz., $1.00 14
