SALZER’S FROST Pansies hhb 
PROOF PANSIES (Heartsease) 
Salzer’s Frost Proof Pansies are what their name implies; they 
successfully winter through the severe climate of this north 
country and will bloom long after frost. For a number of years 
Frost Proof Pansies at our 
Cliffwood Farm have delight¬ 
fully surprised us with the num¬ 
ber of beautiful blossoms we 
pick during the cold months. 
The flowers themselves are 
very large, often meas¬ 
uring 3 inches across, 
and are produced in a 
beautiful variance of 
colors from deepest 
black to snow white. ™ 
Mrs. J. W. Webb, R. D. 
1, Box 301, Roanoke, 
Va., writes, “One packet 
of seed gave me a lovely 
bed of Pansies. They 
were in bloom January 
23rd.” Miss Rhoda Cole, 
Okemah, Olcla., writes. 
“I picked' Pansies De¬ 
cember 24th, and they 
were lovely.”
