What Burpee's seeds have done for me.

I have gained both pleasure and profit from Burpee's seeds.

Some years ago we came to the North West where the seasons are short , dry and cool.

We were told that some of our favorites such as melons and tomatoes would not mature here, because of the climatic conditions. But my sister included these in her order to Burpee and raised a fine lot of melons and some of the tomatoes ripened. That incident encouraged me and when I became the gardener I ordered seeds adapted to our climate and now I have ripe tomatoes galore. Fine melons too and some years have sold several dollars worth.
