Wild 
Celery 
(Vallisneria 
Spiralis) 
Wild Celery 
brings the Div- 
ing Ducks. Can- 
vasbacks, Red- 
heads and Blue- 
bills darken the 
sky over the 
wild celery beds. 
Wild celery is 
fully as impor- 
tant as a food 
plant for the 
diving ducks as 
wild rice is for 
the marsh ducks. 
These divers migrate thousands of miles to find 
wild celery and feast upon the tender white shoots 
and buds which are produced very abundantly. 
Wild Celery is also a very important food and 
cover plant for fish, supporting countless num- 
bers of animal life which the young fish feed 
upon, also providing hiding places where they 
may escape the larger fish which feed upon them. 
The Wild Celery is a hardy submerged plant 
which will grow in almost any fresh waters from 
2 to 12 feet in depth and does the best on a mud 
bottom. It grows well in slow running streams or 
rivers, also in lakes or ponds which are not land 
locked. Extreme Spring floods do not affect the 
growth of this plant. 
Seed of the wild celery should be planted dur- 
ing Fall when it is freshly gathered. This seed 
being perishable and inclined to sour when stored, 
we cannot guarantee delivery for late orders. 
Place your order now and we will make ship- 
ment direct from the harvest field and send you 
seed which we guarantee to grow. 
Forty pounds will plant an acre.
