What Burpee's Seeds Have Done For Me.

This year I used only Burpee's seeds
For my garden and flowers too,
They proved the wisdom of my choice
For I think nearly every seed grew.

Some grew the choicest vegetables,
And some grew flowers that were fine;
People who came to view the grounds
All wished for a garden like mine.

I said, "Try planting Burpee's seeds,
They are guarenteed to grow,
Then just keep down the noxious weeds 
And you will succeed, I know".

I have grown fine banana squash,
Lettuce, onions, radish, peas and chard,
Spinach, carrots, parsnips, beets and beans,
And savoy cabbage large and hard.

Everything grown in the garden
Did exceedingly well for me,
And the brilliantly colored flowers 
Were a beautiful sight to see.

There was market for all my produce,
No trouble at all to sell
Such crispy home-grown vegetables,
At a price that paid me well.

What have Burpee's seeds done for me?
I am glad to have you know,
That I got pleasure, health and wealth
From the Burpee seeds that grow.
