Alaska Frost Proof Pansy 
SALZER’S FROST PROOF 
PANSIES 
Biennial. Salzer’s Frost Proof Pansies are what their 
name implies; they successfully winter through the se¬ 
vere climate of this north country and bloom long after 
frost. For a number of years Frost Proof Pansies at 
our Cliffwood Farm have delightfully surprised us with 
the number of beautiful blossoms we pick during the 
cold months. 
The flowers themselves are very large, often measuring 
3 inches across, and are produced in a beautiful variance of 
colors from deepest black to snow white. Mr. B. R. Clemens, 
Mifflintown, Pa., writes, “The Frost Proof Pansy seed I 
ortlered from you was very satisfactory and the blooms 
were beautiful.” Miss Rhoda Cole, Okemah, Okla., writes, 
“I picked Pansies December 24th, and they were lovely.” 
Have pansies after all other flowers are killed by frost. 
We are able to give you varieties in straight colors as 
listed, or straight blended Cliffwood mixture in which all 
colors, bronze, blue, mahogany, yellow, mauve, black, etc., 
are represented.
