Shoe ~ thanks for that gentle bump. Twas something I needed to have done.
I think the topic which I'm interested in will be best approached in a new thread and I will welcome anyone that has input.
The thread "Soliciting your suggestions for small or dwarf vegetable plants please?" in
Vegetables and Fruit forum
As an aside Biyuwolf ~ the old saying to not judge a book by its' cover is appropriate with plants also. There are quite a few gardeners that have successfully grown the Florida Everglades tomato in climates that are not tropical. If I recall, it was named accordingly due to the discovery of the original plant.
Best wishes with your endeavor. pod
