Replying to an earlier post

Not just likely to vary with location and season, it absolutely will vary with location and season.

Where I live, there’s one highly productive almost bullet proof plant that immediately comes to mind: Physalis – Ground Cherries.

They don’t seem to suffer from any of the diseases or pests that can decimate tomatoes. They can handle full sun to partial shade. They don’t need fertilizer. They’re drought resistant. Heat resistant. Deer resistant. They reseed on their own each year. And they produce a large volume of fruit over a long period of time, up until the first hard freeze.
