Here are my top 4 picks for extreme heat, you will need to do a little research to see if they will grow in you area. - Chadwick Cherry also known as Camp Joy Tomato (sets fruit in 115° F. - 45c) --- Cherokee Purple likes wet heat (doesn't handle dry heat well) ---The Punta Banda tomato loves dry heat, and requires less water then most tomatoes- it originates from the Punta Banda Peninsula in Baja California, Mexico ( growing wild there). It can manage on poor soils and is therefore recommened in extreme conditions. Indigo Rose- originates from Chile and the Galapagos.
