"The November launch of our new catalog marks the earliest release of new product information in our company's 136-year history," says Burpee's chairman and CEO, George Ball.
The company hopes to satisfy the appetites of curious garden enthusiasts by offering new products earlier, continues Mr. Ball. This also makes garden planning more practical for southern gardeners who start their seeds as early as December and January.
