272 BURPEE'S FORDHOOK CELERY 
Burpee’s Fordhook Celery has 
a most delicious, crisp, nutty 
flavor unequalled by any other 
variety. It is, without question, 
the best fall and winter celery. 
The stalks are unusually thick, 
always crisp and juicy, and en¬ 
tirely free from stringiness. When 
blanched, they are a beautiful 
silvery white with a full tender 
heart showing a tinge of light 
buttery yellowr" ,Mim * u,B, ^^^^®| 
Plants are stocky, upright and 
15 to 18 in. high. Because of 
their medium height and com¬ 
pact growth, they are more 
easily blanched than taller varie¬ 
ties. Fordhook is one of the best 
keepers of all celery; plants will 
remain in perfect condition 
throughout the winter and way 
into the following spring. 
More Fordhook Celery is being 
grown now than ever before; its 
fla vor, quality and tenderness 
cannot be surpassed. Try it. 
Our special strain of Fordhook 
Celery is grown on our West¬ 
ern farms, where soil and cli¬ 
matic conditions are ideal for 
the production of plump, vital 
seeds. All plantings are made 
from yearly selections to main¬ 
tain the high quality for which 
our strain is noted.
