Gentlemen:

Reliable seed is necessary if you want success in gardening.

My garden was planted this year with seeds bought from the Burpee Co two years ago.

The large percentage of germination surprised me reaching easily 90%, but a far greater surprise was the large crops from the plants. I have picked about a bushel and a half of stringless Green Pod Beans from two 40 ft rows with some on the vines yet. Other plants yielded proportionately.

Burpees seeds not grow, but produce crops in the growing.

Yours
