Ponderosa Red

25 Seeds Per Packet

The Ponderosa Red Tomato is a classic heirloom variety known for its large, beefsteak-style fruits and rich, full flavor. The tomatoes typically weigh 1–2 pounds and have a deep, vibrant red color with a smooth, round shape. The flesh is thick, meaty, and juicy, offering a sweet, slightly tangy flavor, making it perfect for slicing, sandwiches, and fresh eating.

80-90 days from transplant. Indeterminate plants grow to 6–8 feet tall, producing a generous yield of large, flavorful tomatoes throughout the growing season. These plants thrive in full sun and need consistent moisture to ensure the best fruit quality. Staking or caging is recommended to support the heavy fruit load.

Grown in the U.S. since 1891.
