CELERY GOLDEN SELF BLANCHING FRENCH STOCK. 
CELERY 
Apio Sellerie Celeri 
Sow seed in frame or open ground. Transplant 4 inches apart, when 3 inches high, in rich 
soil finely pulverized; water and protect until well rooted, then transplant into rows 5 or 6 feet 
apart, either on surface or in well-manured trenches a foot in depth, half filled with wel’-rotted 
manure. Set the plants from 8 to 12 inches apart. To blanch, draw earth around the plants from 
time to time, taking- care not to cover the tops of the center shoots. One ounce of seed will produco 
5,000 plants. 
Golden Self Blanching French Stock. The fa¬ 
vorite and most popular Celery on the market, 
east or west. A few years ago we were for¬ 
tunate enough to obtain a limited quantity 
from the originator, which when tested, 
proved to be superior to anything we had 
ever seen. Samples given to market garden¬ 
ers for trial proved so satisfactory that now, 
it is hardly possible to supply their demands; 
in fact it has superseded all other varieties, 
which should be sufficent to recommend it to 
the most skeptical. It is heavier and more 
compact than any other kind, the stalks: aro 
thick, crisp and brittle, while the hearts are 
large, solid, and all blanch evenly a beau¬ 
tiful golden yellow. The quality is excel¬ 
lent, tender, and of delicious flavor. Pkt. 10 
cts., oz. 40 cts., lb. $4.50. 
White 1*1 nine. We offer a choice strain of this 
valuable and popular variety. It is unsur¬ 
passed for fall and early winter use, requir¬ 
ing very little earthing up to blanch it. Pkt. 
5 cts., oz. 25 cts., lb. $2. 
Pink Plume. Similar in habit and growth to the 
White Plume, and while it combines all of its 
merits, which include crispness, solidity, long- 
keeping qualities, fine color and flavor; its 
leaves are beautifully tinged with pink, 
which gives it a very attractive appearance. 
Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 20 cts., lb. $2. 
French’s Success. Extensive trials have proven 
that this is the best late-keeping variety of 
White Celery in the market, and therefore 
invaluable to those who wish Celery for the 
spring trade. Foliage dark green, head large, 
stalks solid, white, thick, brittle and fine 
quality. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 35 cts., lb. $3.50. 
Golden Dwarf. The best of the half-dwarf 
varieties; the heart is golden yellow, turning 
to a light color when blanched. Very solid, 
rich flavor and a good keeper. Pkt. 5 cts., 
oz. 10 cts., lb. $1.50.

varieties; early and hardy. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15
