LANDRETHS’ SEEDS—THE STANDARD BRAND FOR 150 YEARS 
CELERY—Continued 
Golden Plume or Wonderful—115 Days 
We hesitate to recommend something to take the 
place of Golden Self-Blanching, but here we offer 
something superior. This variety is an individual 
line selection from Golden Self-Blanching, is five to 
ten days earlier, produces a larger, thicker and more 
solid stalk, blanches much more easily, is of richer 
color, being creamy yellow and lastly/it withstands 
blight much better. We look for it to finally replace 
the old standby, for undoubtedly it is a wonderful 
improvement. No strain no matter what the selling 
price may be is superior to that which we offer. 
Golden Self Blanching (Tall)—120 Days 
By many believed to equal the famous French grown 
of this variety. It is a big hearted, showy type. 
The plants develop crisp, tender stalks of rich golden 
yellow color. It requires little blanching. 26 to 30 
inches tall. 
Paris Golden Yellow (Dwarf-French Grown 
Seed)—120 Days 
A solid, golden variety, very showy and rich. Very 
easily blanched as many consider it hardier than 
the tall type, consequently, the earliest to develop 
into edible condition. Thick, solid and crisp, of a 
waxy golden appearance. 
White Plume—115 Days 
This is a most desirable, early, handsome Celery. 
One of the best varieties of Celery in the market 
today and is especially fine for private gardens. No 
garden should be without this most delicate and 
delicious variety; it is much in demand by market 
gardeners for early Fall use. It is self-blanching to 
a great extent—consequently after earthing it 
blanches very quickly and is soon ready for the table; 
is very tender, sweet, and attractive in appearance. 
When growing it presents handsome leaves of bright 
green with white tips. We cannot recommend our 
strain of this variety too highly. 
TURNIP ROOTED OR CELERIAC 
Large Smooth Prague—120 Days 
I his plant is used for the large Turnip-like bulbs 
forming under the ground; the stems above ground 
are of no value except to use for flavoring. The 
seed should be sown and given the same treatment 
as any ordinary Celery, except it is not necessary 
to earth up the plants as is necessary in growing 
ordinary Celery. The roots can be readily kept 
till late in the W inter and are excellent for soups, 
stews or salads.
