Full description

Tomato ‘Powers Heirloom’ is a traditional open-pollinated heirloom tomato variety prized for its rich, classic tomato flavour and dependable production. This variety produces medium to large, well-formed fruits with a balanced sweet-acid taste that is excellent for fresh eating, slicing, and culinary use. As an heirloom, it has been carefully preserved for flavor and vigor rather than uniformity or shipping durability. Plants are vigorous growers and perform best when given support such as stakes or cages. Non-GMO and organically grown, this tomato is ideal for home gardeners seeking authentic flavor and seed-saving potential.
