Burpee Flower Catalog

The Burpee Flower Catalog is one of the most popular, if not the most popular gardening catalog found anywhere. It dates back to 1876 when a young man who loved gardening took a loan of $1000 from his mother to begin his company. By the year 1915, the Burpee company had reached a catalog distribution of one million. Many of the older catalogs are now collectible items because of their age and beautiful artwork. The gardeners of the U.S. recognized the great products and customer service offered by Burpee, which is why to this day it remains a very popular catalog.

One item this company sells is annual flowers. Annuals are flowers that bloom for one yearly season, hence their name. Examples of annuals include begonia, sunflower, petunia and many others. The other category of flowers are perennials, also sold by Burpee. Perennials include butterfly bush, lavender, lilies, geraniums and plenty more. Perennials are preferred by many gardeners because they come back year after year. Flowering bulbs are also sold in this catalog, including alliums, hyacinths, crocus, daffodils, iris, poppy and various others.

Herbs are also a popular category in the Burpee catalog. Not only can you buy individual herbs but also herb gardens and kits. There are many different kinds of herbs commonly used for cooking, tea and even alternative medicine. Examples of herbs include sage, rosemary, thyme, lavender, chamomile, basil, fennel and chives to name a small sampling. Many of the kits have a theme, such as kitchen herbs or fragrant herbs. There are even herb gardens for your feline friends that feature catnip and edible grasses. Herb garden kits make great gifts for friends and family. They are cute and easy to grow and care for.

If a vegetable garden is what you want, the Burpee Flower Catalog can meet your needs. They sell an amazing range of vegetable plants and seeds. Common vegetables like corn, squash, cucumber, tomato and lettuce can be found, as can more exotic vegetables like Swiss chard, tomatillo and a variety of peppers including green, yellow, red and hot varieties. Burpee also sells seed packets, gardening supplies and accessories and other related items. No matter what your garden needs, you can find it sold by this renowned company.
