 VARIETIES 



J —^ .A new introduction that bids fair to occupy 



Golden Detroit, an important place in the list of high quality 

 celeries for Market Growers. It is self blanching, but far more 

 vigorous than Golden Self Blanching. The stalks are heavy, 

 broad and thick, and the heart is full and compact. The quaHty 

 is excellent, and it is also entirely free from strings. It is a good 

 shipper. Price, oz. $2.00, H lb. S6.00, lb. $20.00. 



These grow quickly, blanch easily, and are 

 especially adapted for fall and early winter use, 



HENDERSON'S SELECTED 



Golden Plume 



Produces More Marketable Celery than 



any other Strain, and is in Demand 



in Every Market 



With the introduction of Henderson's Easy 

 Blanching Celery in 1914, we had the satisfaction 

 of placing before the American public a superior 

 medium early celery, that up to this period has not 

 been excelled, and in Henderson's selected Golden 

 Plume, we have the pleasure of offering to our 

 friends the grandest, early golden celery that 

 America has ever known. 



Among the reports received by us from growers 

 to whom we sent samples of this new variety for 

 trial one says: "it is a glorified and perfected celery 

 of the Golden Self Blanching type, but far superior 

 to that old variety." Another one, Mr. Ben Man- 

 ning, of Ridgewood, N. J., said, "I grew Henderson's 

 Golden Plume Celery alongside of samples received 

 from five other sources. Henderson's produced 

 13 5^2 crates on a row 300 feet long and netted a 

 return of $46.70. The others averaged 11 crates to 

 the row and netted $39.00." 



Henderson's Golden Plume Celery is absolutely 

 the earliest maturing celery grown. It is large, 

 vigorous, and appears to be immune to blight and 

 rust. We highly recommend it to the market 

 gardener for its attractive appearance, which when 

 fully matured is most inviting; the foliage is creamy 

 yellow, and the stalks creamy white, becoming 

 almost white at the base and it has a large full- 

 plumed center desired by consumers. It is brittle, 

 tender and deliciously flavored 



It's earliness, vigor, freedom from disease, large 

 size, attractive appearance, and high quality, 

 promise to market growers a very profitable return. 

 Price, oz. $2.00, M lb. $6.00, lb. $20.00.
