Hey finally a another person who lives close by. Yeah, I'm in Ottawa and
just started gardening this year. I have some in pots and some in the
ground. I have lemon boys, sweet 100's, romas, big boys, beef steaks. So
I'm guessing that since Ottawa definitely frost, I will have ot replant all
my tomatoes and plants next year unless I bring the peppers indoors.

I am new to gardening and plannted tomatoes, zuchinnies, peppers and
eggplants this year. After the season is done for this year, do any of
these grow back the following year or do I have to replant them?
Thanks


Where are you located? Primarily, what is your latitude?
Is your "handle" also your location?
All the plants listed are perennials with the exception of zucchini
which is an annual. However, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant are all
very frost sensitive perennials so, if you live in an area where there
is any chance of frost they will not survive.
Some people have good results with peppers by bringing them inside in
pots for the winter and pruning them back in spring. Don't know how it
might work with eggplants and, because of their indeterminate nature,
it's not practical with tomatoes.
