Maulers Blue Ribbon Celery 



Culture: So'W the seed thinly any time from March 1 on, in either boxes, cold frames, or in 

 a specially prepared bed. Cover thinly but firmly with fine soil. Keep evenly and moder- 

 ately moist until the seeds sprout. One packet of seed vi^ill provide about 400 plants; one 

 oz. will give 7,500 plants. Four ounces of seed are needed for an acre. Keep the plants 

 growing vigorously at all times, and transplant in rows spaced 4 ft. apart allowing about 

 6 in. between the plants in the row. For a late fall crop and winter storing sow the seed 

 in the open early in the spring when the ground can be prepared. Celery requires ample 

 animal fertilizer and humus, and moisture for good growth. It does best on muck soil due 

 to its moisture retentive quality.
