CAULIFLOWER 
Blumenkohl Chou Fleur Coliflor Cavolfiore 
One pkt. is enough for a home garden; 1 0z. produces about 3000 plants 
Cauliflower is grown like early cabbage. It needs rich soil for best results. 
Cool weather and ample moisture are essential, and for that reason it does best 
early in the season. When the heads are about 4 inches across, tie up the outer 
leaves to encourage blanching. 
Early Snowball. 55 days from setting plants. If planted early, this 
should make a fine early crop of white heads. Will remain firm and 
solid for a long time. 
Super-Snowball. 56 days. Medium-sized, compact heads. Good for 
either early or main crop. Blanches snow-white. Most popular 
variety for gardeners and shippers. 
GEEERY 
Sellerie Céleri Apio Sedano 
One pkt. is enough for a home garden 
Rich soil and plenty of moisture are very necessary requirements for a good 
crop of Celery. Plant the seed in mid-spring and transplant the seedlings as soon 
as they are large enough for convenient handling. In July transfer them to the 
open ground where they are to grow. The tops should first be trimmed off to 
encourage stocky growth. Set the plants 6 inches apart in rows 2 to 3 feet apart. 
Keep well cultivated, and hill up the soil around the plants toward autumn, to 
blanch them. 
Emperor or Fordhook. 130 days. Dwarf type, easy to blanch. Plants 
are 15 to 18 inches tall, and very solid. The stalks are pure silvery 
white after blanching, very thick, tender and crisp. Not a good ship- 
per but noted for keeping qualities. 
Giant Pascal. 135 days. Huge, light yellow stalks which keep well 
through the winter. Rich, nutty flavor, very tender and flavorful. 
A standard sort, deservedly popular. Stalks are green until blanched. 
Golden Self-Blanching. 115 days. The most popular early Celery. 
Grows quickly and produces thick, heavy stalks of golden yellow. 
Needs only slight hillmg up. Crisp and good flavor. Desirable for 
truckers but not a good shipper. 
White Plume. 115 days. Does not keep well but is ideal for home 
gardeners who can enjoy it immediately after digging it. Long, crisp 
white stalks without strmgs. Matures very early. 
CELERIAC 
Knollen-Sellerie Céleri-rave Apio-nabo Sedano-rapa 
One pkt. is enough for a home garden 
Start the seed indoors and transplant 8 inches apart in the row when large 
enough to handle. Culture is much the same as for celery except that blanching 
is not necessary. Use the roots when they are about 2 inches across. 
Giant Prague. 112 days. Large, smooth, turnip-like roots with celery 
flavor, used in soups and stews. Will keep well until late winter. 
Super-Snowball Cauliflower 
Celery must never suffer at 
any time for lack of water or 
continuous cultivation.
