I am planning another year of trying to grow tomatoes here in Tucson during the summer. I know about tomato polen burning at around 95 degrees-F. I'm looking for special varieties that don't have this problem. I've got some varities from the University of Florida that are heat tolerant, but probably not to the extent that they could tolerate the 105-110 degrees-F that we see here. Have there been any new varieties developed recently? Genetic engineering is okay with me as long as the tomato tastes good. I've been trying to find a source of tomato seed from the the native societies of North, Central, and South America, but haven't had much luck beyond Native Seed Search. Can you reccomend any sites?
