Tall Golden Self Blanching 
329 Celery, Superior Golden Self 
Blanching Tall. The best tall growing, 
variety in our trials. The distinctive 
feature of this wonderful variety is 
that it is literally self blanching. It is 
a favorite with both market gardeners 
and the home planters. The plants 
grow 20 to 22 in. tall. They are re- 
markably solid and ready for the table 
in about 110 days. Though it is essen- 
tially an early variety it will store 
quite well until about Christmas or 
New Year’s Day. The foliage of the 
growing plants is a greenish yellow, 
but when blanched it is an appealing 
waxen yellow color. The thick solid 
stalks blanch to a beautiful golden 
yellow. They are extremely solid, free 
from strings, and have a remarkably 
rich-nutty flavor. Pkt., 20 cts.; 0z., 
90 cts.; % Ib., $2.50; 1% Ib., $4.50; I1hb.,

Shumwa 
327 Giant Pascal 
and succulent, 
327 Known as Winter King. 135 days. 
Considered by many the standard winter 
celery. Plants are large, upright and very 
heavy. Stalks are tall and thick, solid, 
stringless, and of a rich, nutty flavor; 
broad, distinctly ribbed, tender, crisp, and 
very tasty. After blanching they are an 
attractive light yellow. Inasmuch as the 
stalks are green, soil should be used for 
blanching. If properly stored, it will keep 
in perfect condition throughout the win- 
ter months. Whether grown for home or 
market use, Giant Pascal has always given 
entire satisfaction. Pkt., 20 cts.; o2z.,
