Greetings garden lovers! I hope you are enjoying your weekend. Hopefully you have lots of delicious garden gems to enjoy! ♥
Back in April, we picked up a few tomato seedlings at a
Tomatomania sale at Descanso Gardens:
- Sungold
- Cherokee Purple
- Mario's Roma
They were
supposed to be the best varieties to handle extreme desert heat... and they are growing like I have never seen tomato plants grow before! Last year, my best tomato plant had maybe 6 tomatoes total...
for the entire growing season!
But these varieties are amazing! There have been so many tomatoes... I have not been able to keep count!

Does anyone know of any other tomato varieties that thrive in extreme heat?
tomato heaven!
