1 Perfected White Plume Celery |. {yb 4. turd. 
(XX Selected Strain) LD Te ARON CR NO 
This magnificent celery is improving from year to year under high 
culture and careful selection. It is a truly beautiful type. No other 
celery naturally turns white upon reaching maturity. All others 
require blanching with boards or with earth. The Golden Self-Blanch- 
ing naturally turns yellow, but this one turns white. Not only does 
the stem whiten, but the leaf itself, especially every inner leaf, assumes 
the attractive white color. This makes the White Plume Celery one 
of the most showy ornaments that can be put upon the Thanksgiving 
or Christmas dinner table. As to succulence, crispness and quality, 
the Perfected White Plume is all that can be desired of a white celery.
