BUCKBEE S IMPROVED GOLDEN HEART— The best for family and 

 market use. The quality is grand and far superior to the orig- 

 inal stock of '-Golden Heart" in habit of growth, and is consid- 

 erably better than the parent stock. The stalks are very thick, 

 beautifullv formed, perfectly solid, and of excellent flavor. 

 Another requisite is its excellent keeping quality. In this re- 

 spect it is the best celerv for winter storage, for market or pri- 

 vate planting. You will find it an indispensable variety. PKt.

 NEW GIANT PASCAL— A green leaved variety developed from the 

 Golden Self Blanchinff, and has no superior for fall and winter 

 use Verv solid and crisp and of a nutry flavor, unequaled by 

 any other sort. Stalks broad and Thick and a very quick 

 blancher. Recommended for the South, where it grows most 

 satisfactory. Pkt. 4c. oz. 12c. lb. 45c, K lb- 80c, lb. ^l.oO. 

 NEW GOLDEN SELF BLANCHING —This is 

 bevond doubt the best celery for early 

 market use. Plants of a yellowish-green 

 color when young, changing to a beauti- 

 ful solden yellow, which adds much to 

 their attractiveness and makes the work 

 of blanching much easier. The hand- 

 some color, crisp.ness, freedom from 

 stringiness and fine nutty flavor makes it 

 the .standard of excellence. Pkt. 4c, oz. 

 15c. 14 lb. 5.5c, 14 lb. 81.00, lb. Si. 75. 

 WHITE PLUME —A handsome crisp sort of 

 very easy culture. Its stalks and por- 

 tioiis of its inner leaves and heart are 

 white, so that closing the stalks or by 

 tying, or by simply drawing the soil up 

 aminst the plant and pressing it together 

 the work of blanching is completed. Its 

 eatins qualities are excellent, but it is 

 not as good a keeper as our Improved 

 Golden Heart. One of the earliest vari- 



eties knovrn. Pkt.

 White Plume, but in which the inner leaves and stalks av' 

 tinged with pink, making it a wonderfully attractive and bcauti- 

 fufsort It is also superior in quality to the White Plume and 

 earlier. Pkt. 4c, oz. 15c, ^ lb. 50c, K lb. 80c, lb. SI. .50.
