BURPEE’S SPECIAL 
FLOWER SEED MIXTURES 
In these mixtures we have included the eas- 
iest growing varieties that can, if desired, 
be sown broadcast haphazardly over large 
or small areas, and with very little care 
will produce a colorful display all season. 
Seeds may also be sown in rows and the 
plants thinned repeatedly in order to allow 
plenty of space for them to grow vigorously 
and develop properly.

flowers but a selection of easy-to-grow an-

vacant borders, with little attention.
