Re: Burpee Seeds...


I have used Burpee for many years and have been well satisfied. I have
not heard anyone mention "planting by the moon" for years. My parents
were great believers in such. The Old Farmers Almanac was the only
"garden book" that I recall seeing in our house when I was a kid. My Dad
always planted potatoes on Good Friday, even if he had to clear away the
snow to do so.
