176 Golden Plume 

 or Wonderful 



Early, Choice, and Blight Resistant. 

 Fine Nutty Flavor 



(110 days) A new type developed from the famous 

 Golden Self Blanching Celery and already very 

 popular with celery growers. The plants are 

 semi-dwarf and have thicker stalks than those of 

 the original Golden Self Blanching. The heart is 

 particularly thick and full and the stalks are wider 

 and more substantial. When blanched the stalks 

 are a beautiful light golden yellow which suggests 

 their choice quality. The flavor is distinctly nutty 

 and rich. Pkt. 10c; Vzoz. 35c; oz. 55c; Vi lb. $1.65; 

 Vz Jb. $3.00; lb. S5.50; 2 lbs. $10.25; 5 lbs. $24.75; 

 10 lbs. S46.75. 



Culture: Sow the seed thinly anytime from March 1 on in either boxes, cold frames, or in a specially 

 prepared bed. Cover thinly but firmly with tine soil. Keep evenly and moderately moist until the 

 seeds sprout. One packet of seed will provide about 400 plants; one oz. will give 7500 plants. Keep 

 the plants growing vigorously at all times.
