Why aren't tomatoes indigenous to the UK?
In my back garden the 'soldiers' grown from last year's fallen tomatoes are
starting to ripen fruit.
From this I presume that they in turn could drop fruit to provide seed for
next year.
So what is there to stop tomatoes becoming naturalised in the UK?
I assume that the current climate is conducive to outdoor tomatoes and the
last winter was certainly pretty harsh.
Although I haven't seen tomatoes growing as weeds in mediteranean areas.
