HENDERSON'S 



Winter QueenCelery 



The Standard Variety for Winter Keeping 



Late Celeries require different treatment from the self-blanching 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 hardy, slow to rot in the trench and is perfect in quality. (See cut.) 



Price, 10c. pkt., 40c. oz., $1.25 \i lb., $4.00 lb. 



"Your Winter Queen was the best Celery in Los Angeles last 

 Christmas. That was also the verdict of all my acquaintances."
