Pitzonka’S Pansy Farm 
ALTHOUGH Pitzonka’s Pansies have been the choice of thousands of gardeners in 
the eastern states for several decades, and although we are going to continue to 
specialize in our famous strains of Pansies and Violas, we want our customer friends, 
as well as gardeners everywhere, to know that we also grow and distribute a varied line 
of the better perennials. 
Our Pansy Catalogue will be issued as usual in time to plant this fall, but in this booklet 
we call attention to our collection of Hardy Perennial and Rock-Garden Plants, offered at 
remarkably attractive prices considering the quality of the plants we grow and the selected 
strains of everything we carry. 
Testing all the new plants introduced every year is an expensive proposition, and we 
find that most of the novelties are no better than the varieties we already have, but every 
year there are a few things that are worthy and these we add to our collection for your 
pleasure. Look through this Catalogue and if you have never tried Pitzonka’s perennials 
give us a trial order. We believe you will be pleased with the strong, healthy plants we send 
you and will be further pleased with their growth and bloom. 
We hardly know how many Pansy plants we grow each year. The quantity is so great 
that if we told, few would believe us, but visitors to the New York World’s Fair can get an 
idea of our Pansy business when they see our Pansies there. 
Several hundred thousand Pitzonka Pansies will decorate the Fairgrounds this year. 
Look for them when at the Fair.
