PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— WHOLESALE CATALOGUE. 



CHANTENAY Half^Long Scarlet CARROT. 

 The Popular Sort for Bunching. 



This is well-known ever^'where as one of the best bunch- 

 ing varieties, and is popular with all growers. 



It is used largely in frames where the small tops allow 

 close planting. In the open ground it has long been a 

 standard sort. It is broadest at the shoulder, and tapers 

 towards the base, running quicklj^ to a point. Price, 

 10c. oz., 30c. i lb., $1.00 lb. 



Danvers Carrot. 



HENDERSONS' 

 SELECTED 



A Perfect, Heavy-Shouldered, Shapely Stock. 



Our idea of a good Danvers Carrot is a root about eight 

 inches long, broad at the shoulder, and maintaining a 

 good diameter until near the base, then going quickly to 

 a point. This type is admirably suited to the market, it 

 gives great weight per acre, and is easily dug. We believe 

 there is no better stock sold anvwhere. {See cut.) Price, 

 15c. oz., 40c. i lb., $1.25 lb. 



Far our cheaper strain of Danvers see page 22. 



IMPROVED LONG ORANGE CARROT. 



Our strain of this well-known Carrot is heavy at the 

 shoulder and of great weight. It averages 12 inches in 

 length and 2^ in. at the shoulder, is clear and smooth 

 throughout and will produce enormous crops per acre. 

 Price, 10c. oz., 30c. i lb., $1.00 lb. 



HENDEKSON'S 



Easy^Blanching Celery. 



THE PIONEER OF A NEW CLASS. EASY TO GROW. EASY TO KEEP. 



This variety cannot properlj- be classed with either the self-blanching, or the 

 green sorts, as it possesses many of the best qualities of both. 



There is no green Celery that blanches so quickly, and no blanching sort 

 that has its vigor, keeping quality or flavor. It is thoroughly blanched and 

 ready for use just about the time the green sorts are ready to pit, and is therefore 

 ready to market long in advance of them. Its keeping quality is so good that 

 it may be pitted for later use, or marketed straight from the^field. It is medium 

 in height, the stalks are thick, brittle and sti-ingless. The outer stalks close 

 in' to the heart very readily, thus hastening the blanching process. There is no 

 variety that blanches the outer stalks so thoroughlj', or that wastes so little in 

 trimming. {See cut.) Price, 2Cc.pkt., 3 pkts., 50c., $2.00 oz., $7.00 | lb., $25.00 lb. 



WINTEK QUEEN CELERY. 



A selection from Henderson's Golden Dwarf. The habit of the plant is 

 dwarf, and it has great vigor. The stalks are medium long, thick, only slightly 

 ribbed, extremely solid, and very crisp. The flavor is delicious when thoroughly 

 blanched. It may be marketed late when its quality will ensure good prices. 

 Price, 10c. pkt., 30c. oz., 90c. i lb., S3. 00 lb. 



GIANT PASCAL CELERY. 



Very distinct. The plant has fewer stalks than any other, these are almost 

 as thick as broad, of fine texture and delicious quality. It blanches easily, and 

 a little quicker than most of the late sorts, and is usually marketed earlier. 

 Price, 30c. oz., 90c. I lb., $3.00 lb. 



H ENDERSON'S GOLDEN DWARF CELERY. 



This is grown just as widely as ever for a winter crop. It stands pitting re- 

 markably well, where its robust character enables it to resist rust and rot. It 

 is medium in height; the stalks are solid, fleshy and crisp. It has an abundant 

 heart, the inner leaves blanching to a rich creamy yellow color, which shows up 

 well in the bunch. Price, 30c. oz., 90c. I lb., $3.00 lb.
