Living in a hot, dry, desert climate has been an on going challenge for an traditional English gardener like myself. So, I have carefully chosen a selective choice of tomatoes from the finest organic heirloom varieties just to make it easier for those living in extremely hot / dry / drought and / or humid climates. These unusual tomatoes are known for supreme flavors and excellent resistant to drought and disease plus the added bonus is they are very easy to grow. I send tips on growing for those living specifically Las Vegas where the whole idea arose. These are carefully chosen to ensure the finest quality avaliable, the seeds are most reliable in germination having grown them all with almost no difficulties.

Companion planting is based on the idea that when planted in groupings, plants can assist in the over- all well being of the garden.  For example; some plants add nitrogen into the soil that is needed for the healthy growth of other plants.  Beneficial insets are attracted to certain types of plants, and some plants repel insects.  Other plants can provide protection from the sun and wind for more delicate plants.  Some weeds have a beneficial quality also.  The benefits of companion planting include a natural method of pest control, a higher produce yield, and a garden that is visually more appealing.

With the exception of fennel, most herbs planted in or near vegetable beds will have a beneficial effect. Try planting herbs at the corners of beds to ward off flies and various insects and to attract bees.
