no ....
I remember the snow in Catania city only once .... in the'80s ... and dissolves immediately

the minimum margins can be about 1 / 2 ° C ... 34/36 °F in the worst case scenario

Etna volcano is another story

In English we say "cherry tomato" ...

test to see if they are ... otherwise you would send seeds ;)
 
cherry tomatos are great tasting.

I was hoping they were some sort of "cluster" tomatos that got about 3" in(7.5cm)diameter...

I have made up my mind this year, I am not growing anything small....
 
AJ,

Red Zebra is a great tomato if you want one that is a little on the sweet side. They only get about the size of a cueball to baseball but they are prolific - at least a bushel per plant over the year, maybe more.

If you want a huge tomato, try the Giant Belgium. They got huge but were not great producers as far as number of tomatoes per plant. The juice is different - almost a pumpkin color. I managed 11 quarts of juice from two plants.
