American Grown Bulbs for American Gardens 
The beauty of your garden next spring depends, to a great extent, on the material you 
plant this fall. Burpee’s Bulbs are ideal for bold displays in beds or borders, or in groups here 
and there among perennials, in front of shrubbery, or in odd nooks and corners. 
It is easy to grow beautiful flowers from Burpee’s Bulbs. Some are for indoor culture only, 
others for outdoors, and some for both. Short cultural suggestions are given in this book; full 
directions for planting are printed on the bags containing the bulbs. 
All bulbs listed in this little catalog, with a few exceptions, must be planted in the 
fall. All are American Grown except Bermuda Easter Lilies; all have been produced with the 
greatest care to assure Burpee customers of planting “‘The Best that Grow.’’ Supply of bulbs 
is limited; we suggest you order as soon as possible. 
ORDER EARLY Bulbs ordered before they are ready to 
send out will be booked for delivery and orders filled, in 
rotation as received, as quickly as possible after the bulbs 
reach us from our growers. All Bulbs, with just a few ex- 
ceptions, are ready for delivery after the middle of September, 
and all hardy varieties can be planted outdoors any time 
from then on until the ground freezes hard. Daffodils will 
do better if planted before the ground freezes. 
FREE DELIVERY Everything offered in this catalog will 
be delivered prepaid anywhere in the U. S, at the prices 
quoted, except large quantities of Asparagus, Horse-Radish 
and Rhubarb roots, listed ‘‘not prepaid.” 
BURPEE GUARANTEE We guarantee the vitality and 
purity of Burpee’s Seeds and Bulbs to the full amount of 
the purchase price. You can have your money back any 
time within a year if you are not satisfied with the results. 
Even with the highest quality seeds and bulbs, success in 
gardening depends largely upon cultivation, soil, and weather 
conditions. Therefore, in no case shall W. Atlee Burpee Co. 
be liable for more than the amount actually paid us for 
seeds or bulbs. All goods listed in this book are sold under 
this guarantee; they must produce satisfactory results or 
your money will be refunded.
