CELERY (Cont.) Setting 
GOLDEN NO. 49 Plants 
A strain of Golden Self Blanching of the same general character as Golden 90 
No. 14 but runs consistently larger and heavier. Solid compact form with very 
good heart. Superior to Golden No. 14 and in our opinion a higher yielding, 
excellent quality shipping sort. 8 to 814 inches to joint, overall height 24 to 
25 inches. 
GOLDEN PLUME DWARF (Original Strain) 
Early and very desirable for home and market garden. Plants medium sized; 85 
stocky, full hearted and compact; with thick solid stalks which blanch readily 
and are of the finest table quality. 
GOLDEN PLUME 4162 (New Strain) 
Our improved strain, bred to fill the need for a taller, longer stemmed Golden 85 
Plume. Retains earliness and ease of blanching of original strain but is more 
compact in form, straighter, and better “shingled”; much better adapted to 
standard crate. Heavy producer. Normally 24 to 26 inches tall with stems 
714 to 8Y inches long and hearts full. 
MORSE’S MASTERPIECE (Our 1939 Introduction) 
A distinct and superior variety combining earliness of self blanching strains 90 
with excellent quality of green varieties. Normally 24 to 26 inches tall, with 
thick stems 8 to 9 inches long, broad and straight with rounded edges; almost 
’ free from strings; crisp, fleshy, rich in flavor; blanch to clear cream color. 
NON-BOLTING GOLDEN PLUME (Our 1936 Introduction) 
A dwarf compact strain of Golden Plume. Upright with full hearts and stems 100 
of thick moderately rounded shape. In repeated tests this has resisted bolting 
under severe conditions. In cool weather it is not tall enough for most com- 
mercial crates, but in warm weather it is 20 to 24 inches tall on good land. (See 
Tall Non-Bolting Golden Plume.) 
SUPERPLUME (Our 1938 Introduction) 
Similar in size and general appearance to Golden Plume, but has thicker, 80 
longer, meatier stems of better quality. Edible portion of stem 7 to 9 inches 
to first joint, Texture remarkably good, very firm yet crisp, and comparatively 
free from strings. Blanches easily to attractive, light cream. Not resistant 
to fusarium yellows. 
SUPREME GOLDEN (Our 1937 Introduction) 
The newest development in the Golden Self Blanching class. Meets the demand 85 
for celery with longer edible stems. Height 22 to 27 in.; stems 8 to 10 in. to 
first joint. The compact, well formed plants pack well in the crate. Earlier 
and taller than Golden Detroit. Well adapted to Florida for winter crop and 
fe northern districts for main crop. Outstanding for length and fullness of 
earts.
