Giant White Solid Celery 



THE MOST VIGOROUS OF ALL CELERIES 



Very tender and brittle when blanched. Sweet and nutty in flavor. 



In the adjoining engraving we show a variety of Celery which has not in 

 recent years received the attention it deserves.^ Always a fine table Celery 

 we have devoted much effort toward improving it and the stock we now 

 offer shows marked superiority to that of a few years ago. It is a splendid 

 winter celery, keeps well, and is invaluable to succeed the early kinds. The 

 flavor is excellent, sweet and nutty, the stalks are very brittle, almost without 

 any fibre when blanched. 



Giant White Solid Celery is an exceedingly strong growing variety, reaching 

 24 to 30 inches high, with fleshy, solid, broad, tender stalks which when 

 blanched become ivory white in color. The stalks of this celery are more 

 largely developed in proportion to the dimensions of the leaves than any other 

 variety, and its habit of growth is very erect. (See engraving.) Price, 10c. 

 pkt., 35c. oz., $1.00 M lb., S3.50 lb. 



A FAMOUS NEW CELERY 

 HENDERSON'S 



Easy -Blanching Celery 



(ILLUSTRATED IN COLORS ON PAGE 7) 



Emphatically Distinct from Any Other Sort. The Easiest 

 and Quickest to Blanch. Excels All Late Sorts in Long- 

 Keeping Quality. The Earliest and the Latest in One Row 



This splendid Celery was named and introduced by us. It will, we feel 

 certain, take rank with the other vegetables which we introduced, many of 

 which are the standard of merit and have achieved a world-wide reputation. 

 The original stock has been improved under our watchful care and it is to- 

 day as near perfection as nature can make it. 



Henderson's Easy-blanching Celery excels in the qualities that give self- 

 blanching Celeries their value; it bleaches earlier and quicker than any of 

 this class. It is the longest keeping variety grown (if put away green), excel- 

 ing in this respect everv other sort. (See engraving.) Price, 2(Dc. pkt., 3 pkts. 

 for 50c., 7 pkts. for $1.00, $2.50 oz., $9.00 M lb.

"To-day I have put my Easy Blanching 

 Celery in the trench. I never had finer 

 stalks. Instead of setting up a 12-inch 

 board as you advised, I will have to set up 

 two 1'2-inch boards to reach to the top of my 

 plants, and they are in a 

 shallow trench besides."

HENDERSON'S 



Winter Queen Celery 



The Standard Variety for Winter Keeping 



Late Celeries require different treatment from the self-blanohing 

 sorts. After a slight banking up in the open ground the plants are 

 put away in deep trenches to blanch. Kept thus in contact with the 

 earth, they acquire a greater degree of tenderness and flavor. 



Winter Queen is a fine selection of Henderson's Golden Dwarf, and 

 has all the qualities which made it popular, plus a larger and fuller 

 heart. It is an excellent variety for a late crop, is very hardj', slow to 

 rot "in the trench and is perfect in qualitv. Price, 10c. pkt., 40c. oz 

 31.25 ;| lb., $4.00 lb. 



" Your Winter Queen Celery is the best celery and the best seller I ever raised in the 

 ten years I am trucking." 



HARRY L. MOYER, Temple. Pa 



"I must say how much I am delighted with your H'inler Queen Celery. 

 Plume for earlv and Winter Queen to follow we have perfect Celerv all winter."
