WHAT BURPEE'S SEEDS HAVE DONE FOR ME.

It is a pleasure to write to tell what Burpee's seeds have done for me.  Have sowed his vegetable and flower seeds for over thirty years, and during those years Burpee's seeds have never failed to produce the nicest vegetables, thriftiest plants and the most beautiful flowers I've ever had an opportunity to see.

This summer I have a very fine collection of Burpee's Spencer Largest Flowering Sweet Peas.  The vines are fully six to eight feet in height, very thrifty, bearing a profusion of four perfect blossoms on strong stems varying in length from eight to twelve inches.  The long stems add greatly to the beauty and loveliness of the blossoms.

Have a bed of Burpee's New Blue Petunia.  The plants blossom freely, producing clear, rich blue blossoms.  This petunia has created much praise and admiration.

My pansy bed this year is a beautiful sight, a complete mass of gorgeous colors;  too wonderful to describe.  The pansies are Burpee's Giant Fancy Pansies.

I have won many first prizes at flower shows on flowers grown from Burpee's seeds.  Sometime ago won a prize direct from Burpee on Burpee's Defiance Petunia.

Burpee's seeds are all and more than represented to be.
