HENDERSON'S PERFECTED WHITE PLUME. 



Introduced by us years ago ; time has proved it to be one of our 

 most valuable contributions to horticulture. It is now more popu- 

 lar 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, so that 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. Hen- 

 derson's White Plume Celery presents a highly ornamental appear- 

 ance on the dinner table, and its crisp, succulent stalks and 

 delicious flavor are unequaled by any vegetable grown. Unfor- 

 tunately 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 persevering selection for years enables us now to offer 

 an almost absolutely pure stock, so superior that we feel justified 

 in calling it "Henderson's Perfected White Plume." (See cut.) 

 Price, 5c. pkt., 30c. oz., $1.00 % lb., $3.25 lb. 



GIANT PASCAL. Is of a fine nutty flavor, being entirely free 

 from any bitter taste. It grows about two feet high ; the stalks 

 are very broad, thick and crisp, and entirely stringless. 10c. pkt., 

 35c. oz., $1.00 U lb., $3.00 lb. 

 GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING. A most valuable variety which 

 partakes somewhat 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., 40c. oz., $1.25 J^ lb., $4.50 lb. 

 GOLDEN DWARF. In the great Celery-growing districts this 

 variety is planted to the exclusion of almost all others. When 

 blanched the heart is of a waxy golden yellow, rendering it a 

 most attractive and showy variety ; entirely solid, of excellent 

 flavor, and one of the best keepers during winter. 5c. pkt., 25c. 

 oz., 80c. Y± lb., $2.75 lb. 

 Soup Celery. (Old Seed.) Excellent for flavoring. 30c. lb.
