This incredible variety has been around a long time and is famous for its excellent canning ability. I have researched and found different sites that claim it isn't acidic enough to can using water bath, but the latest research has found that if canned using safe recommended canning practices, these are a beauty to use (see for latest recommendations and research http://extension.usu.edu/htm/faq/faq_q=1811). With the exception of some of the white tomatoes, tomato acidity is rather stable and it is usually the sugar content that varies, rather than the acid level. These tomatoes really are beautiful and production is consistent -- all the maters on the plants are globe shaped, deep red, meaty, with no imperfections. Impressive variety as well for a summer mater sandwich as it has a firm body and not so juicy that it falls apart. Easy to skin for canning. It is resistant to Verticillium Wilt and Fusarium Wilt. Regular leaf type.
