HENDERSON'S
Winter QueenCelery
The Standard Variety for Winter Keeping
Late Celeries require different treatment from the self-blanching sorts. After a
slight banking up in the open ground the plants are put away in deep trenches to blanch.
Kept thus in contact with the earth, they acquire a greater degree of tenderness and flavor.
Winter Queen is a fine selection of Henderson's Golden Dwarf, and has all the qualities which made it popular, plus a larger and fuller
heart. It is an excellent variety for a late crop, is very hardy, slow to rot in the trench and is perfect in quality. (See cut.)
Price, 10c. pkt., 40c. oz., $1.25 \i lb., $4.00 lb.
"Your Winter Queen was the best Celery in Los Angeles last
Christmas. That was also the verdict of all my acquaintances."
