'Ace 55' is a classic heirloom tomato variety that will transport you back to the nostalgic days of exploring your grandmother's garden. This variety is best enjoyed straight from the garden, offering a delightful taste that will please even those who have had reservations about tomatoes in the past due to its low acidity. With its reliable production and consistent size, it has become a popular choice for home gardeners. Not only does it boast a delicious flavor, but it is also resistant to blossom end rot and exhibits superior drought resistance.

Introduced in the 1950s, 'Ace 55' is cherished for its excellent, fresh tomato flavor and is particularly favored for canning purposes. The fruits, which measure 5"–6" in diameter and weigh 6–8 ounces, are the perfect size to be quartered and preserved in jars. This variety offers exceptional yields, with the majority of the fruits ripening over a 1 to 2 week period, making it an ideal choice for areas with a long growing season. For continuous harvest, it is recommended to sow 'Ace 55' in succession.
