Easy-Blanching Green Celery 
Newark Market Jersey Grown) 
Its great distinctions are its ability to blanch, quickly, great vigor, and complete 
resistance to Celery “sickness,” heart rot, or blight. Plant is somewhat taller than 
Dwarf Golden Self-blanching, foliage is broader, and the stalks are higher jointed, 
heavier, and more plainly ribbed. The stalks are easily blanched, by boarding, in 
from two to three weeks’ time, and blanch¬ 
ing may be hastened by partial earthing up 
before boarding. Newark Market develops 
very rapidly and it produces large, thick, 
fleshy stalks of great solidity, very brittle, 
crisp and of unusually fine flavor. 
Full Heart. The stalks, about 20 inches tall, 
well rounded and with as much heart as is 
possible to grow, are very easily blanched to 
a light golden color. This round tendency of 
the stalks eliminated the softness sometimes 
noticeable in Easy-Blanching types. Good for 
cold storage or trenching. 
Jersey Green. A splendid easy-blanching green 
strain perhaps best described as a slightly 
dwarfer Newark Market. It has just as heavy 
stalks and heart which seem to be heavier due 
to the shorter plant height. Jersey Green 
blanches a trifle sooner with very full hearts 
and is a good keeper. 
Late Green Celery 
Emperor Special. Compact, feet high, with dark 
green foliage, and it resists disease. The stalks are 
very thick, smooth, stringless, crisp, and blanch 
white. It keeps very well in storage. Has a fine 
nutty flavor. 
Newark Market Celery 
Giant Pascal. A very desirable long-keeping green 
winter variety, growing about 2 feet high, making 
broad, thick, stringless stalks and large hearts. The 
hearts blanch to golden yellow and the crisp, solid 
stalks to a pearly white. Giant Pascal is the finest- 
flavored Celery, exceeding all others in its rich nutty 
flavor. Specially fine for midwinter use as the stalks 
remain solid and brittle and it retains its color long 
after being stored. 
Giant Pascal, Jersey Private Strain. We offer, in 
limited quantities, this very special private strain 
which we consider the ultimate in flavor, crispness, and perfect keeping quality. 
Our Jersey Strain Giant Pascal grows with more vigor, is heavier, with thicker 
stalks and larger, fuller hearts, but retaining that hard, solid, keeping quality. 
Try this new green strain—“ California Pascal ” 
This is the type of Celery which, last fall, was shipped from California to 
the Middle West and eastern markets as “California Pascal.” It is originally 
of Utah parentage, with vigorous, taller plants of medium green color which 
mature earlier and have the other fine qualities of that variety. The stems 
are of Pascal type, rounded with deep channels but smoother and less ribby. 
They blanch somewhat earlier and are firm, very crisp and of superb flavor. 
The hearts are of good length and of medium size. Usually sold when green.
