HENDERSON'S PERFECTED WHITE PLUME. 
The Only True Self-Blanching Celery. 
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 nutty flavor is unequaled by any vegetable grown. Un- 
fortunately 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. per pkt., 30c. per oz., $1.00 per 14 lb., $2.75 per Ib. 
GIANT PASCAL. Is of a fine nutty flavor, being entirely free 
fromany bitter taste. It grows about two feet high; the stalks 
are very broad, thick and crisp, and entirely stringless. 10c. pkt., 
35e. 0z., $1.00 14 lb., $3.50 Ib. 
GOLDEN SELF_BLANCHING. A most valuable variety which 
partakes somewhat of the character of the celebrated ‘*‘ White 
Plume,” inasmuch as it simply needsa slight earthing up or 
“handling.” Itis of a beautiful waxy golden color, very solid 
and of arich nutty flavor. 10c. pkt., 40c. oz., $1.25 4 Ib., $4.00 Ib. 
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., 25¢. 
oz., 75¢. 14 lb., $2.50 Ib.
