[[underlined]] What Burpee's Seeds Have Done for Me. [[/underlined]]

Perhaps the best way for me to express "What Burpees Sees have done for me," is to describe part of the garden I owe to them and to the results they never fail to produce.

Sweet peas bloom in glorious profusion, delighting the eye with every conceivable color, from purewhite to deep maroon. The tall vines are literally ablaze with fragrant blossoms, unrivalled in their individual charm and perfection of form.

They alone would convert one to Burpee's seeds for life, but when they are reinforced by a host of charming allies, who could resist the temptation of a Burpee garden ?

Along the fences nasturtiums climb in wild abandon, their brilliant gold and orange and scarlet blooms glowing like fire and sunlight from the background of delicate green foliage.

Zinnias vie with the nasturtiums in a riot of brilliant colors, while a dainty border of sweet alyssium scents the air with it's delicate fragrance.

Surely the beauty of a successful flower garden and the fascination of watching nature reveal her artistry each succeeding summer, cannot help develope a love of the beautiful and a deeper appreciation of the bounties which she holds in store for us.
