Little Mama is Huge!, September 22, 2007
Submitted by Mabel

"This plant looked puny when it arrived and I was doubtful that it would survive.
Instead, it has flourished and outgrown the bed. But we don't mind. The tomatoes are plentiful and delicious. The plant is extremely vigorous. It was infested with some little pests, which I sprayed with vegetable-safe stuff, and the tomatoes still kept coming. They are just juicy enough; good for every purpose without a flood of juice."

The only Cuke I grow!, September 20, 2007
Submitted by Kingfish from Warrington, Pa

"I have been growing this one for years and it's simply the best cuke in my opinion.
Super crunchy and slim, never gets bloated like standard cucumbers.
The seed cavity is almost nonexistent, the flesh is that solid.
These are great in a salad, as a salad, or just for fresh eating.
Tastes and looks like no other cucumber!"

Outstanding, September 19, 2007
Submitted by mama from indiana

"My Attraction buterfly bush is 2 years old. It is about 5 ft tall, and has a very attractive rounded shape. The first blooms are especially large/long, and the subsequent ones are smaller, but profuse. It is also strongly fragrant, and attracts buterflies and hummingbirds in huge numbers. I have a few buterfly bushes and this one is my favorite and all over the best perfomer. It is the first to bloom and from then on is never without flowers. I do deadhead."

Great pumpkin, September 9, 2007
Submitted by rbrink21

"Prolific producer. I planted two plants and ended up giving a dozen away and still ended up having some go bad in storage. They do store well. Ours finally went bad late spring of the following year. Greqt for carving, well shaped jack o' laterns. Good for cooking too."

I love the color, September 8, 2007
Submitted by butterflygardener from Seymour, CT

"The purple of these flowers is really bright, and they bloom a lot during the summer months. You can even use them as cut flowers, but I just enjoyed them in the garden."

Still good after all these years, September 3, 2007
Submitted by migardener

"I found some of these seeds that I bought 2-3 years ago. I gave them the wet paper towel test and I was amazed that all of the seeds sprouted. So I planted them and lo and behold--these beans are just as prolofic and good tasting as they were a few years ago. Fabulous yields and great flavor--even from old seed :) My garden will never be without them."

Great little squashes!, September 3, 2007
Submitted by migardener

"I'm a "one-woman show" and planted only one hill of these little guys. They have provided me with plenty of squash for the table. I love them steamed with a little bit of garlic butter and salt. The squash vine borers didn't attack them either. Will plant again next year."

"Grew this tomato last year, everyone loved them. Although, the plants get extreamly tall (sometimes over seven feet) it is a high yielder and has a great flavor. Planted again this year with great sucess. My husband's co-workers can't wait until I share. Will definitly plant again next. year."

Brandywine success, August 31, 2007
Submitted by GreenThumbJim

"This was the first time I tried Brandywine tomatoes and what a success!!! I look forward to homegrown tomatoes all year long and these tomatoes were definitley worth the wait!!!
I ended up with one Brandywine plant and one Cherokee Purple plant each in my raised bed. Both were delicious, but the Brandywine plant got huge and it's fruit was extremely large too. The tomatoes were very large , very juicy and very tasty....neighbors and co-workers were very impressed too!"

Amazing overall!!, August 30, 2007
Submitted by gordylynn

"We cannot get over the size and taste of this pepper!! One pepper goes a long-g-g way and tastes so-o-o pleasant! We are even using it in our homemade spaghetti sauce and just love it! We are so sold on the Marconi pepper, as we are on other Burpee products that we have purchased. We are first time Indiana customers and will be now every year to come!!"
