Though the ribs are prominent the stalksare practically stringless and wonderfully crisp, tender andgood flavored. They are large and thick. In color they are avery rich and wax-like yellow tinted with pink at the base whichdeepens into a carmine line along the ribs. We have carefullytested this sort and we believe it to be one of the most valuablekinds in cultivation both for the home garden and those marketswhich demand vegetables of high quality. No celery grower ormarket gardener should fail to grow it extensively, as its remark-able beauty alone will give it ready sale wherever offered. Pkt. 5c;Oz. 36c;2 Oz. 60c;HLh. $; Lb. $
