Buckbee's All Heart 



THE BEST EARLY CELERY 

 Crisp and Brittle. Rich Golden Color. Exquisite Nutty Flavor. 



The latest and best creation in Celery — originated on Rockford 

 Seed Farms after years of careful trial and experiment and has given 

 unparalled satisfaction in every part of the country. 

 It is very early, of fine ivory-white color with a rich 

 golden heart. Crisp, tender and brittle; the flavor is 

 delightfully rich and nutty, in fact it is unsurpassed 

 for the professional Celery grower, the home and mar- 

 ket garden. I control the entire stock of Buckbee's 

 All Heart Celerv. Pkt. lOc; K oz. 20c.; oz. 35c.; 

 2 oz. SOc; il lb. 90c.; 1 2 'b. $1.60; lb. $3.00. 



Buckbee's Genuine Golden Heart 



THE BEST LATE CELERV 

 Original Private Stock — This variety makes a very 

 strong and vigorous plant, with large, very white, crisp, 

 brittle, tender and fine flavored stalks. It is late, and 

 requires the whole season to develop, but will keep 

 longer than any other sort. Pkt. 5c.; oz. 20c ; 2 oz. 



3Sc; U lb. 60c.; i-i lb. $1.10; lb. $2.00. 



Buckbee's Perfected Kalamazoo 



It is an acknowledged fact that more good Celery is 

 giown in the famous "Kalamazoo Celery Fields" than 

 anywhere in the country. For years my heaviest sales 

 of Celery Seed have been in that section, and I have 

 devoted much time to the improvement of the justly 

 celebrated variety grown 'n that section, until I now 

 have this acme of perfection in Celery — of creamy- 

 white color, ideal size and perfect shape. It is alike 

 profitable either for market or family use. There is no 

 waste in preparing it for the table. Pkt. 4c.; oz. 12c.; 

 2 oz. 23c; ^4 lb. 45c.; lb. 80c ; lb. $1.50. 



Golden Yellow Large Solid, 



or GOLDEN SELF BLANCHING 

 This is the best Celery for early use. Plants of a yellowish-green 

 color when young, but as they mature the inner stems and leaves 

 turn a beautiful golden yellow, which adds much to their attractive- 

 ness and makes the work of blanching much easier. The 

 handsome color, crispness, tenderness, freedom from 

 stringiness and fine nutty flavor of this variety make it 

 only necessary to be tried in order to establish it as the 



standard of excellence as an early sort. Pkt. lOc.; i oz. 



35c.; oz. 60c.; 2 oz. $1.10; i lb. $2.00. 



White Plume — private stock 



Is too widely known to require extended description. I will 

 only say that I have not yet found a Celery that is as early 

 and of as good a flavor, crisp and tender, as my selection 

 of this sort. Combined with these important points are 

 Its self blanching qualities, which render it one of the 

 most valuable sorts. I sell, every year, large quantities of 

 this seed to market gardeners, who find it uniformly white 

 and free from green or hollow stalks. It is not as good a 

 keeper as our .All Heart, but it is unsurpassed for fall and 

 winter use. Pkt. 4c.; oz. ISc. ; 2 oz. 25c.; }4 lb. 45c=; 

 lb. 80c.; lb. $1.50. 



Golden Self Blanching. 



New Columbia 



An early maturing sort unsurpassed in shape and quality. The 

 plant is of medium height but very stocky and heavy. The stalks 

 are thick, almost round, resembling in shape those of Giant Pascal; 

 the color has in it more of the rich yellow tint of Golden Yellow Self 

 Blanching which variety it resembles very much in 

 appearance when trimmed and bunched for the mar- 

 ket. Its quality is certainly exceptionally fine. Pkt. 

 lOc; J oz. 25c.; oz. 45c.; 2 oz. 80c.; i lb. $1.50. 



Pink Plume 



Stalks clear, creamy wliite, shaded with a beautiful 

 delicate pink. Flavor sweeter tlian any other, all red 

 Celery having a stronger "Celery" flavor, and is pre- 

 ferred by Celerv lovers wherever known , Plants bleach 

 naturally. Pkt. 4c.; oz. 15c.; 2 oz. 25c.; M lb- 45c.; 

 1^2 lb. 80c.; lb. $1.50. 



Giant Pascal 



A selection from the Golden Self-Blanching, and 

 adds to the general good qualities of its parent, su- 

 perior keeping qualities. The stalks are very large, 

 thick, solid, crisp, and of a rich nutty flavor, free from 

 any trace of bitterness. Pkt. 4c.; oz. I2c. ; 2 oz. 22c.;

 maturing, being one of the earliest green leaved sorts.

 tender, v.'hite and of fine flavor. Pkt. 3c.; oz. 12c.;
