HENDERSON’S SELECTED 
Table Celeries 
HENDERSON’S SUPERIOR 
The varieties of Celeries we illustrate, and to which 
we give extra space, are, in'Jour opinion, particularly w'eli 
adapted for cultivation'in private gardens. 
Our long experience with this crop gives our opinion 
more than ordinary value. We strongly urge our 
customers to be guided by our recommendations. We 
have abstained from any exaggeration in the claims 
wc make for the respective varieties. They are based 
on the actual experience, not of ourselves alone, but our 
numerous customers in every State of the Union, and 
under a great variety of conditions. 
Seif-Blanching Celeries 
This is the name given to a number of varieties which, 
by reason of their earliness, and the short time required 
for the blanchmg process, are indispensable for the 
earliest crops. 
Their value is so pronounced that probably 90 per cent, of 
all the Celery marketed in the United States is of this class.

What 
Growers Say 
“ You may be interest¬ 
ed to know that in 
our whole crop of 
fifteen carloads 
of Henderson’s 
Golden Self- 
Blanching Cel¬ 
ery, wc were not 
able to find 
cnouoh defective 
stalks to fill even 
one crate. It is 
grand celery.”

Jan. 10th, 1916. 
“ We had great success with 
Henderson’s Golden Self-Blan¬ 
ching Celery last year. All the 
seeds we had from you were very 
satisfactory.” 
G. T. LOGAN, Reno, Nev. 
/ March 3d, 1916. 
l ‘Just a few words of esteem regarding your Self-Blanching 
Celery. It certainly was fine, crisp and lender. Every seed must 
have grown.” 
Mrs. II. WHITEHEAD, Easton Pa. 
“ Henderson’s Golden Self-Blanching Celery is the best I ever grew.” 
T. D RE NT II, Ridgewood, N. J. 
“ My neighbor begs me to get for him the same Celery Seed as I had 
last year (Henderson's Golden Self-Blanching). It is true my Celery 
was the best on the market.” 
ADOLF ENOCH, Lockland, Ohio. 
“ Your Golden Self-Blanching Celery seed produced better celery than any 
raised around here.” 
PAUL SEYFERT, Bradentown, Fla. 
An excellent variety of French origin. This is the variety grown 
largely for market, but it is equally valuable for the private garden. 
It is very early, blanches quickly and its rich color makes it quite 
attractive. The habit of the plant is short and stocky; the stalks 
are broad, thick, very solid, crisp and brittle, the quality is superb, 
tender and free from stringiness; flavor rich and delightful. It develops 
a large heart quite early in its growth, Which makes the greater 
part of the plant edible. It is fit for use early in September, and 
remains in use until the later winter sorts mature. Our seed is grown 
from a very select strain and pronounced by expert Celery growers as 
very superior. (See engraving.) Price, 15c. pkt., $1.75 oz., $6.00 l /i lb.,
