I should see how they like the Florida sun


They just don't stop growing, so put them on a trellis like a grape
arbor. I had to cut mine back so I could get down the path to my
other raised beds.

The first stalks that had the cherry tomatoes on them had like 20
tomatoes on it. I've never seen a cherry tomato that produced like
that, and had no disease issues, either. It slowed down blooming in
the hottest part of the summer, but didn't stop producing. If I had
put shade cloth over then, blooming wouldn't have slowed down either.


I looked at the web site and they do not have a zone number. We are
zone 10 and that is brutal on things that can't handle the heat.
