Golden Self Blanching 
Thi* is the best celery for early use. Critical gardeners depend 
upon our stock of this sort to produce their finest early celery. 
. Plants are 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 attractiveness and makes the work of blanching much easier. The hand- 
some color, crispness, tenderness, freedom from stringiness and fine nutty 
flavor of this variety makes it only necessary to be tried in order to establish 
it as The Standard of Excellence as an Early Sort. French grown Seed.

thorough culture. As the roots are the edible portion of this vegetable it is 
not necessary to earth up or "handle” it. After the roots have attained a 
diameter of two inches or over, they will be fit for use. To keep through 
winter, pack in damp earth or sand and put in the cellar, or leave out of doors
