WINTER CELERY 



196 



Winter Queen 



This is one of the popular older sorts, being an excellent winter keeper and a valuable variety for late 

 use. The green coloring in this sort is not so well fixed, making it easier to blanch than some of the other 

 winter varieties. Winter Queen has a broad, heavy stalk, not too long for easy blanching and packing. 

 Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 25 cts., y 4 lb. 75 cts., lb. $2.50. 



198 Giant Pascal 



This is an excellent green-leaf sort for fall and early 

 winter use. It is so solid, tender and crisp that it has 

 to be handled with great care to prevent its breaking. 

 The stalk is of medium height and blanches to a beau- 

 tiful yellowish white color. Very thick and heavy, the 

 upper portion nearly round, broadening and flattening 



toward the base, 

 lb. $3. 



Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 30 cts., V 4 lb. 85 cts. 



200 



S. S. Late Winter King 



This is a late green sort, particularly adapted to 

 muckland growers. It grows very quickly and 

 blanches in ample time for the Thanksgiving and 

 Christmas markets. It is a half-dwarf, with very 

 heavy, robust stalk, with joints on the outer leaves well 

 up, making it a most profitable variety. It is absolutely 

 free of pithy or stringy stalks. Pkt. 15 cts., oz. 60 cts. 

 V 4 lb. $1.75,' lb. $6. 



203 



New Columbia 



This is an early-maturing green Celery, unsurpassed 

 in shape and quality. The stalks are almost round, 

 resembling in shape the Giant Pascal, and in color it 

 has some of the red-yellow of the Golden Self-blanching, 

 which variety it resembles in appearance when trimmed 

 and bunched for the market. The foliage is a delicate 

 light shade of green with a tinge of yellow. In season 

 it follows in close succession the Golden Self-blanching. 

 Its quality is exceedingly fine, and the form of the 

 plant, its fine color and earliness will recommend it as 

 a superior variety to all market growers. Pkt. 15 cts., 

 oz. 60 cts., 141b. $1.75, ib. $6. 



205 



Dwarf Golden Heart 



This is an old market variety, with short, thick, 

 stalky growth, blanching up with rich golden heart. 

 It is an excellent winter keeper. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 25 cts., 

 i/ 4 lb. 75 cts., lb. $2.50. 



CELERIAC (Turnip-Rooted Celery) 



Culture. — Sow the seed at the same season, with the same treatment, as Celery; transplant to moist, rich 



soil in rows 2 feet apart and 6 inches apart in the row. As the 

 roots are the edible portion, it is not necessary to cover it up 

 as is done with Celery. After the roots have attained a 

 diameter of 2 inches, they are fit for use, and will be found 

 to be a tender and most desirable dish. To keep 

 through the winter pack in earth or sand and put 

 in the cellar, or leave out-of-doors, covering with 

 earth just as you would beets or carrots. 



209 Giant Prague 



An excellent form of Turnip-rooted Cel- 

 ery; fine for stews. It produces roots that 

 are nearly globular in shape and compara- 

 tively smooth in surface. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 

 25 cts., y 4 lb. 75 cts., lb. $2.50.
