Large, deep red fruit with low acid content–one of the few red tomatoes to be able to make that claim. Crack-resistant. Heavy foliage shades fruit to protect from sunburn. The plant is not overly tall but still benefits from staking. Good for containers. Developed at the University of California in Los Angeles and first offered for sale in 1950. This tried-and-true variety is resistant to verticillium wilt (V), fusarium wilt (F), and Alternaria stem canker (ASC). Not ideal for canning as the acid content is too low for a hot water bath.
