Their wide range of colors and varied forms, their easy culture, their long 
blooming season and the excellence of Burpee strains are all reasons for 
the increase in the sale of Zinnias which are now near the top of our list. 
Zinnias are one of the most important flowers of today. We have worked 
hard with them, selecting and reselecting until we have obtained strains of 
the highest quality. Our customers have steadily increased their orders 
so that Zinnias are now another of our leading specialties. 
Our acreage in California has been correspondingly increased to meet 
the heavy demand for seed. As with other crops, when our plantings are 
increased to a certain amount, our growing costs decrease and we are glad 
to pass the saving on to you in the form of lower prices. And remember 
the low prices here listed are for Burpee Quality Seeds. 
We suggest you cover on your requirements now in order that we may 
plant enough land which should normally produce the quantity of seeds 
wanted.
