CELERY 
Easy Blanching 125 days 
The stalks are of medium height and 
quite large, but blanch very easily and 
quickly. Tender, brittle, sweet. A good 
keeper. Semi-green color. 
Emperor or Fordhook 130 days 
An excellent late green variety. Dwarf

are too thick and brittle. 
Giant Pascal (Green Color) 135 days 
The largest ribbed celery. Stalks about 
2 ft. high, thick, solid, brittle and string- 
less. An exceptionally fine winter keeper.

popular everywhere. A late variety. 
Golden Plume or Wonderful 115 days 
A desirable sort for home and market 
gardens. It is free from strings and hollow 
stalks. Semi-dwarf plants, with thick stalks, 
very full heart and blanches to a beautiful 
golden yellow. Its attractive appearance 
and fine quality make it very desirable for 
market gardeners. 
Golden Self-Blanching (American) 
120 days 
V'his is American grown seed from the 
dwarf French stock. Compact growth with 
thick, solid, heavily ribbed stalks which 
blanch easily to a clear waxen yellow. 
Crisp, solid, free from stringiness, excel- 
lent flavor, and a good yjielder. 
Utah 126 days 
A green variety recommended for fall use, 
maturing earlier than Pascal. Stocky and 
full hearted. Stems thick, solid, broad, round- 
ed and of fine quality. The most popular 
green variety today.

home gardens and much used by market 
gardeners for early market. A vigorous 
grower, of large size and uniformly white. 
When growing, leaves are bright green, 
tipped with white. Stalks and leaves blanch 
to clear white. A fine variety for immediate 
use but not recommended for keeping. 
Winter Queen (Dark Green) |18 days 
A short, thick and heavy variety with 
double the amount of heart of any other 
celery. Flavor is sweet and delicious. Leaves 
are light green and blanch to cream white. 
Market gardeners consider it the best keep- 
ing and most desirable winter celery.
