. The Geo. A. Weaver Co's annual catalogue of seeds. Nursery stock Rhode Island Newport Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs; Agricultural implements Catalogs. io The Geo. A. Weaver Co.'s Catalogue of Seeds and Implements, Newport, R. I. CELERY. One ounce will produce about24,ooo GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING. Sow seeds in March or April in a hotbed or cold- frame. As soon as the plants are 3 inches high, trans- plant into a prepared border, setting them 4 inches apart. When grown 6 inches, and fine, stocky plants, shear the tops and set in richly manured, deep soil, in rows 4 feet apart, and about seven inches from plant to plant. Water, if dry weather follows transplanting. During the next two months all the attention required is to keep down the weeds. Afterwards earth up a little, and continue doing so at intervals till only the tops of the leaves are visible late in autumn. Never hoe or earth up when the plants are wet. Boston Market. A short, bushy, white, solid, ex- cellent-flavored market variety. Henderson's White Plume. The stalk and por- tions of the inner leaves and heart are naturally white, so that it needs very little earthing up. Its qualities are equal to the best older sorts. Golden Self-blanching. An early, beautiful and in every way desirable sort, requiring but little labor to blanch. The heart is a rich, golden-yellow, with light yellowish green outer leaves. Giant Pascal. A superior keeping sort. The stalks are very large, thick, solid, crisp, of a rich, nutty flavor, and free from any trace of bitterness. It blanches very easily and quickly, and retains its freshness a long time after being marketed. The heart is golden-yellow, very full and attractive. Kalamazoo. Perfectly solid, white, of a fine, sweet flavor, and of extra good keeping quality. Paris Golden Self-blanching. One of the finest in cultivation; very early, very solid; crisp, with fine nutty flavor. Imported originator's seed.
