Burpee Watermelon Beefsteak

Empty seed packet from 2003 in the archives.
I was wondering if still available anywhere?

Carol is a good source; Sandhill Preservation and Sample Seeds also carry Watermelon.

I was only searching for Burpee brand.Once I broadened the search, I came up with other sites that have it.

I remember a co-worker brought it into the office a few years ago. Very nice, big tomato.

they charge more for shipping than the seeds

Looks like Burpee has dropped that variety from their line-up. I doubt it was ever a Burpee product anyway, just a repack. Plenty of choices for finding seed.

Years ago stores that sold burpee seed had a section in the display just heirloom seeds.
Last year and this year no heirlooms.
