You can grow great tomatoes in cool climates!

Don’t settle for bland tomatoes just because you garden in a cool climate!


The key to tomato-growing success is choosing the right variety for your gardening conditions. Not-So-Hot Tomatoes, Second Edition, will show you:


  • Which types of tomatoes are best-suited for cool-climate conditions.


  • Which heirloom and hybrid varieties are recommended for flavor and high yield without requiring excessive heat to ripen.


  • Tips for growing tomatoes successfully in a shorter season. 


 From the tiniest, tastiest currant tomatoes all the way to super-sized, sensational beefsteaks, and every type of tomato in between (tomatillos too!), you’ll find almost 200 recommended varieties and the seed companies that carry them. 


Don't waste another tomato season growing the wrong plants. Let Not-So-Hot Tomatoes guide you to the most delicious tomato crop you've ever grown!  Written by award-winning garden writer Claire Splan, author of California Fruit and Vegetable Gardening and California Month-by-Month Gardening, Not-So-Hot Tomatoes is the key to making your tomato dreams come true.
