Schell’s Celery, Summer Pascal. The most popular, early and midseason green Celery in America today, and for only one 
reason, because it is positively the best, richest nutty flavored, crisp, delicious quality in Celery you ever tasted. 
CELERY 
HOW TO GROW CELERY. To have matured Celery early in the summer, sow 
seeds of the early varieties under glass in February; set the plants out in May. Celery 
seed is by no means as easy to grow as most other seeds. For fall and winter crops, 
sow the seed in April or May, depending on the condition of the soil. To get Celery 
seed to germinate and give you a good stand of strong plants, you must have the soil 
worked deep, very fine and loose, moist and warm. Sow the seed in rows a foot apart for hand cultivation. Keep moist; prevent 
soil from becoming dry or ‘‘crusted.” For small gardens start your seed in boxes or seed-flats, or if sowing seed outside cover 
seed-bed with burlap bags or any cloth and keep moist until the seedlings are through the ground then remove the cloth and keep 
moderately moist, prevent soil drying out, not too wet or they will die of ‘‘damping off.’”’ In June set the plants 6 inches apart 
in the rows, having the soil prepared. Make the rows 2 to 3 feet apart. Blanching is done by banking up the earth around the plants 
gradually until within a few inches of the top, also by use of Bleaching Paper (we have it), and by use of boards. One ounce will 
produce about 5,000 plants, 15,000 plants for each acre. Celery seed is slow germinating, usually requiring two to four weeks to 
obtain seedlings. If cold weather causes a check or setback to the young plants, it may eventually result in a large number of 
‘‘Seeders” in the crop. (Days given are time from setting of plants to maturity.)
