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. Mrs. K. Sinks, 
19 N. West St., Plano, Ill., writes, “Your Frost Proof Pan¬ 
sies started blooming very early this spring. They are 
beautiful.” Mrs. George Albrecht, Sowns, Kansas, writes, 
“Some of the big flower growers eame to see your Frost 
Proof Pansies. They bloomed until Christmas and were 
so large.” 
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.

SHAKESPEARE PANSY 
Four years ago a little stray 
Pansy was discovered in our grow¬ 
ings, that was so simple, quaint, and 
sweet, that we saved it for seed. 
It is in no sense a large florist 
Pansy, but is of the quaint, unique 
type of the Pansies of Shakespeare’s 
time, described in the book “Flowers 
from Stratford on Avon.” It is al¬ 
most identical with the original va¬
