Two Prominent Celery Growers who use Harris’ Golden Plume 
GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING—Old Strain. One of the best varieties 
for fail and early winter use and storage. It blanches creamy white 
and the stalks are quite thick, solid and crisp. Matures a week to ten 
days later than Golden Plume. 
The plants are a little shorter than Golden Plume, of stocky growth,, 
heavy, thick and with large, well developed hearts. This strain is very 
uniform in color and type. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 80c; 34 Lb. $2.55; Lb. $8.75. 
GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING—New Strain. Grows much more 
rapidly and is earlier than the old strain. The plants are longer and 
attain a good size much more quickly but does not make such a good 
heart. The new strain is much more vigorous, grows faster and is 
almost “blight proof” as it resists the attacks of blight much better 
than the old strain. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 80c; M Lb. $2.55; Lb. $8.75. 
Good celery is not difficult to raise. The trouble most unskilled gar¬ 
deners experience is in raising the plants. For very early planting the 
seed should be sown in the greenhouse or hot bed in February or first of 
March. For late crop the seed is sown in the open ground as early as 
possible. Great care must be taken not to cover the seed too deep. Most 
failures to get the seed to germinate are due to this cause. 
We give full directions for culture with every order for seed if requested. 
For the home garden it is often more satisfactory to buy the plants. 
See page 82 for Harris’ celery plants. 
Yellow or Self-Blanching Varieties 
GOLDEN PLUME or WONDERFUL. This I s the 
, — . - - . .... .— original strain 
which has proved so popular with our customers and is without doubt 
the best of the Yellow or Self-Blanching types. It has grown steadily 
in popularity since its introduction some years ago. It is early and of a 
vigorous sturdy growth. The plants have long stalks and fine full 
hearts. Our strain has proved to be of a very even golden color, strong 
and healthy of growth and with no soft stalks. No better strain can be 
obtained, even at much higher prices. 
Pkt. 10c; 34 Oz. 25c; Oz. 80c; 34 Lb. $2.55; Lb. $8.75. 
GOLDEN PLUME. New Tall Strain. This new strain of Golden 
Plume is taller than the above and has stems which are longer in the 
first joint. It has proved very satisfactory in many sections, especially 
when grown on upland. 
Pkt. 10c; 34 Oz. 25c; Oz. 80c; )4 Lb. $2.55; Lb. $8.75. 
GOLDEN PASCAL. Grow for High Quality. 1 fhis new variety is a 
yellow or Self-Blanching celery with the shape and all the fine quality 
of the best green kinds. 
The stalks are thick and rounded, of good length, of excellent type, 
and blanch to a clear creamy yellow. This celery is very brittle and 
tender and has a pleasing nut like flavor. When left to grow to maturity 
this celery develops a very good heart. 
This celery is a little taller than Golden Plume, and in season the 
same as Old Strain Golden Self-Blanching. Home gardeners who want 
the finest quality and market growers with a particular trade will like 
this variety. 
Pkt. 15c; 34 Oz. 50c; Oz. $1.40; 34 Lb. $4.70; Lb. $16.50. 
Supreme Golden 
Note the long full hearts. 
SUPREME GOLDEN. 
(New.) Improved Golden Self- 
Blanching. This new strain matures 
a few days earlier than the old strain of Golden Self-Blanching and a 
little later than Golden Plume. It has proved very popular in many 
sections because of the long inside stems which give it a thick full 
heart, and almost cylindrical shape, making the whole plant very solid 
and compact. It is taller growing than the Golden Self-Blanching; 
the stems being long, rather thick, of excellent quality and blanch to a 
rich creamy white. The tops are very compact. This is a variety well 
worth trying. 
Pkt. 20c; 34 Oz. 55c; Oz. $1.85; 34 Lb. $6.25; Lb. $22.00. 
Green Varieties 
SALT LAKE also called UTAH. The Best Green Celery. 
-- There is no question but that green celery is 
superior to yellow both in quality and flavor. Salt Lake is outstanding 
in this respect. 
The stalks are large yet tender and with very little fiber and the 
heart is well developed. There are practically no soft stalks, which is 
unusual with green celery. This celery blanches quicker than many 
green varieties and when blanched is pure white, very crisp, brittle 
and altogether of the finest flavor. 
The firm hard stalks keep well and we highly recommend this new 
celery for winter storage. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 80c; 34 Lb. $2.55; Lb. $8.75. 
GIANT PASCAL—Special Strain. An exceptionally fine stock much 
superior to the ordinary Giant Pascal. Is used largely in New England 
and is considered one of the very best for late winter market. The stalks 
are very large, solid and blanch to a pure white. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 55c; 34 Lb. $1.60; Lb. $5.50. 
EASY BLANCHING, or Newark Market. This is an excellent celery 
for late fall or early winter use. The plants resemble Golden Self- 
Blanching in shape and size, but blanch pure white instead of light 
yellow and keep better. The quality is even better than that variety. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 65c; 34 Lb. $1.90; Lb. $6.50.
