Improved 
Ponderosa 
IMPROVED PONDEROSA 
85 days. Rightly named “Ponderosa” because of the large 
Size it attains. Fruit is very solid, with few seeds. Very often 
large tomatoes, from their very size, are rough and have a tend- 
ency to split, but we selected this seed so exhaustively that we 
have removed the roughness and splitting tendency as far as it 
is possible to do so. 2 
Vines are vigorous and productive. Fruits large oblong, 
purplish-red, with thin skin. Flesh is solid, with a very small 
seed cavity, making it a most desirable variety for slicing. To 
ali who desire large size, solidity and flavor, we unhesitatingly 
recommend it. Requires about 85 days to mature. 1142—Pkg.,,

zero) we will either replace them or refund your money. Nor is 
that all, you can plant Salzer’s Frost Proof Plants out in the
