Pascal Celery 
German—Sellerie. Italian—Sedano, Acci. Spanish—Apio. 
Our Celery Seed is Tested and Guaranteed Pure. 
Culture for Summer Celery—Self-Blanching Varieties: Seed 
is started in hotbeds the middle of March and requires close 
attention, keeping the seedbed moist and giving plenty of air. 
Plants should be set out any time between the 1st and 20th 
of May. Best results are obtained from double rows; that is, 
set plants on each side of the irrigating ditch. Set plants from 
6 to 8 inches apart in the rows, and double rows 3 to V/i 
feet apart. Self-Blanching Celery requires close attention and 
plenty of cultivation, as it is very injurious to the crop if 
plants are allowed to stunt, which is caused from lack of culti¬ 
vation and improper irrigation. Celery requires plenty of water, 
but water should not be allowed to stand in the rows. 
Golden Self-Blanching (New Tall French Strain). This 
is the variety that has been grown so extensively in this 
district for the past few years. This strain is more robust 
and grows 8 inches taller but does not contain as many 
heart stalks as the Dwarf Strain of Golden Self-Blanching, 
but it is a very vigorous and healthy grower and bunches 
easily. Pkt., 10c; Vi oz., 50c; oz., 70c; M lb., $2.65; lb., 
$4.25; lb., $8.00, postpaid. 
Golden Self-Blanching (Dwarf French Strain). Plants 
medium in height, stocky and compact; foliage yellowish 
green; stalks very solid, broad. Produces a good heart, 
blanches readily to golden yellow; best for storage. Pkt., 
10c; Vz oz., 40c; oz., 75c; M lb., $2.25; Vz lb., $3.50; 
lb., $6.00, postpaid. 
Golden “X". This is a new variety from our trial grounds, 
planted side by side with six other varieties. We, as well as 
all Celery experts, agreed it is most outstanding because it 
is very resistant to blight. Stalks thick, firm and heavier 
than regular self-blanching. Also does not wilt and holds 
up longer after being cut and foliage a darker green; fine 
appearance. We recommend it above all other summer va¬ 
rieties for Colorado. Pkt., 25c. oz., $1.50; M lb., $5.00; 
Vi lb., $9.00; lb., $15.00, postpaid. 
Golden. Yellows resistant. This strain of Celery has been se¬ 
lected for resistance to the Celery disease known as Yellows 
Sickness, Root Rot, Sliming and Crown Rot. Growers who 
have, in the past, suffered losses from this disease, can use 
this variety with success on infected soils. It is not resistant 
to other Celery diseases, although withstands blight remark¬ 
ably well. Resembles Golden Self-Blanching (Tall Strain). 
Pkt., 25c; oz., $2.00; M lb., $6.00; Vz lb., $10.00; lb., 
$18.00, postpaid. 
The finest eating or table celery grown. It is of strong 
growth; forms solid, crisp stalks of rich, nutty flavor. Blanches 
easily to rich creamy white and is very brittle. Retains its color 
and fresh appearance for a long time. 
Culture for Winter Celery or Pascal Varieties: Seed should 
be sown as late as April 15th and planting outdoors can be 
done any time from June 1st to July 25th. This variety of 
celery requires forced bleaching, either by wrapping each stalk 
separate with paper or by trenching. The former method is 
only used when early Pascal Celery is desired, but for flavorj 
quality, and long keeping, trenching is necessary. After the 
stalks have been stored in trenches some time, the outer stalks 
bleach creamy white and the hearts make considerable growth 
and it is this heart which was produced in the trench while 
stored that is so palatable. j 
Hartner’s Giant Pascal. This is an improved and highly 
developed strain of Giant Pascal. It is much larger than the: 
regular Pascal and almost free from soft stalks. Its appear¬ 
ance and form are perfect, and its eating and keeping quali¬ 
ties are better than any celery ever offered. It is free from 
strings, crisp and sweet. For the market gardener and winter 
celery growers there is no strain of Pascal better for either 
paper or trenching. It is the most profitable of all celery. 
It grows to an enormous size and grows quick so that it 
can be wrapped in paper and bleached above ground weeks 
before frost. Strain “A”—Short, pkt., 10c; Vt oz., 30c; 
oz., 50c; M lb., $1.75; lb., $5.00, postpaid. Strain **B”— 
Tall, pkt., 10c; Vz oz., 40c; oz., 60c; M lb., $2.00; lb., 
$6.00, postpaid. 
Giant Pascal (French). This seed is French grown and 
of very good quality; however, most planters who grow for 
the market prefer Hartner’s Giant Pascal. (See description 
above). Pkt., 5c; oz., 25c; M lb., 65c; lb., $2.00, postpaid. 
Utah Celery. A very fine strain of fall or winter celery 
which was developed and grown very extensively in and 
about Salt Lake City. Can be produced in any district where 
Pascal Celery is grown and especially recommended when 
bleaching is done by papering or banking in the field. Flavor 
and texture similar to Pascal. Pkt., 10c; oz., 45c; oz., 
75c; J4 lb., $2.25; lb., $6.00, postpaid.
