Ace 55 heirloom tomatoes produce juicy, flavorful beefsteak fruits weighing 12 to 14 ounces. This classic American variety is valued for its low acidity and robust disease tolerance, including resistance to Verticillium and Fusarium, making it ideal for fresh consumption. The determinate plants offer solid yields in approximately 90 days, with seeds featuring an 80% or higher germination rate. Delivered in sustainable, non-GMO packaging, these seeds provide a reliable choice for sophisticated gardeners seeking quality and resilience. The determinate growth habit concentrates fruit production into a defined window, enabling efficient harvesting and simultaneous ripening—an advantage for gardeners planning preservation projects or coordinated fresh market sales. The substantial 12 to 14-ounce fruit size delivers meaty texture and minimal seed cavity, characteristics prized for slicing applications where visual presentation and structural integrity matter. Low acidity distinguishes Ace 55 from many modern varieties, producing a naturally sweet, balanced flavor profile that appeals to palates sensitive to acidic tomatoes and enhances culinary versatility across fresh eating, sauces, and canning applications. The dual disease resistance to Verticillium and Fusarium wilt—two of the most persistent soil-borne pathogens—substantially reduces crop loss and management complexity, particularly in established garden beds where pathogen pressure accumulates over seasons. The 90-day maturation timeline positions Ace 55 as a mid-season variety, allowing succession plantings in extended-season regions or strategic timing in shorter-season climates. The 25-seed packet provides sufficient material for establishing a productive patch or experimental cultivation. Ace 55 represents a heritage selection that combines proven American heirloom genetics with practical disease resilience, delivering consistent performance and authentic tomato flavor for discerning growers.
