Celery is produced in so many different sections of the country and under such varying 
conditions, it has been necessary to develop many strains to insure high quality crops. 
This specialized breeding program has met with marked success in our efforts 
to improve the adaptability of existing strains and lead the way in the introduction of 
better varieties. 
We have for many years, been not only the outstanding source for celery seed in this 
country, but have pioneered much of the research. For example, many new strains of 
the Pascal type are now being adapted for successful growing in Eastern anc Southern 
sections formerly considered undesirable for green celery. 
Generally, the seed is sown 75 to 90 days in advance of when the plants should be 
transplanted in the field. The seed is rather slow in germinating, two to four weeks 
being required to obtain seedlings. The number of days given in the maturity column 
will vary according to season and area, but are the average days required from time 
of setting of the plants in the field to earliest harvesting date.
