ANDREWS-BURRI SEED ANNUAL AND PRICE LIST 


JUMBO No. 99 
CELERY 
CULTURE—Sow in drills and tread seed firmly in; 
thin out to an inch apart and keep ground well worked 
and free from weeds; shade young plants for a week 
or ten days and do not let soil dry out. To secure stock 
plants cut off tops once or twice before transplanting, 
before July, after the plants have attained a height of 
4 to 6 inches. One ounce of seed for 5,000 plants, 4 
ounces for one acre. 
TALL GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING—This 
new tall strain, selected in France from Golden 
Self-Blanching Celery, differs from the original 
by making a decidedly heavier and taller 
growth. The foliage is also quite distinct and 
has been bred for disease resistance. The slen- 
der heart is well blanched. It is an extra-early 
variety which should be carefully tested by 
celery growers to determine its adaptability to 
their particular growing conditions and its mar- 
ket value. Because of their taller growth, the 
plants require more labor if they are blanched 
with earth. 
GOLDEN PLUME, OR WONDERFUL CEL- 
ERY—This celery is very similar to the Golden 
Self-Blanching. It is of the same color and gen- 
eral appearance, but of more vigorous, sturdy 
growth, forming heavy, solid stalks which 
blanch quickly and are of fine quality. We have 
a very fine strain which will be found equal, 
if not superior, to any sold, even at much higher 
prices. We advise all growers of celery to try 
this strain. There are never any soft stalks and 
the celery is large, vigorous and healthy, and 
keeps well in storage. 
8 
PARIS GOLDEN SELF - BLANCHING— 
Similar to the White Plume in its self-blanching 
characteristics, but of a deep golden yellow 
color. 
GIANT PASCAL—Grows two feet high; the 
stalks are very broad, thick and crisp, and of a 
rich nutty flavor. The heart is golden yellow, 
very full and attractive in appearance. It 
blanches very easily and quickly. 
CORNELL NO. 19—100 days, main crop— 
Yellows Resistant—Developed by Cornell Uni- 
versity, cross between Golden Self-Blanching 
and Utah; combining good characteristics of 
both, has the desirable green pascal features, 
with the earliness of easy-blanching strains 
and the outstanding quality of the famous 
pascal. 
The stalks are 10 to 11 inches to the joint, 
smooth ribbed and rounded. The hearts are 
long and well developed. The flesh is thick, ten- 
der and crisp, free from strings. The hearts 
have super quality and flavor. 
Cornell No. 19 has proven highly successful 
on both muck and upland soil, plants vigorous, 
24 inches in height, are highly resistant to 
fusarian wilt. 
We suggest it for main crop. We do not recom- 
mend this as an early crop, as it has ten- 
dency to produce seeds. 
JUMBO NO. 99—Of Utah parentage, earlier, 
taller and vigorous growth, height 22 to 26 
inches. Large, erect, compact, full heart and 
composed of many thick, rounded stalks. Edi- 
ble stalks. usually 8 to 10 inches, medium, with 
quite smooth outer stalks. Lighter green at 
maturity, can be easily blanched to a clear, 
greenish white. 
MICHIGAN GOLDEN—New Strain—Devel- 
oped by Michigan State Agricultural College; 
resistant to fusarian wilt, bred from tall strain 
Golden Self-Blanching; sealed packages only. 
CELERIAC, OR TURNIP-ROOTED CEL- 
ERY—Sow seed same as celery. Transplant in 
rows two feet apart, six inches in the row. 
Thorough cultivation is necessary to secure 
good roots. Earthing-up is not necessary. Roots 
may be cooked or used as salad.
