A 1990 fresh market high temperature tomato from Seminis (Petoseed). It is relatively early with 6 -7 ounce round red fruits. Seminis no longer markets this cultivar to commercial growers but it is still available to deep south home gardeners.It has resistance to verticillium wilt race 1, fusarium wilt races 1 and 2, alternaria stem canker, and gray leaf spot.

I grew 6 Heatwave tomato plants last year in the San Fernando Valley of Southern California. We have mild winters and hot, dry summers. All of my tomatoes were planted against a south-facing wall. They bore prolifically and consistantly all through the summer without a break and still had ripe fruit through January this year. Even here, tomatoes don't normally overwinter, so this was a surprise. They are still alive (4/1) and have a crop that will be ready soon. The only downside is that their flavor is just not all that interesting. The tomatoes are about medium-sized.
