Tomatoes and Eggplants together

Hi everyone!

I'm going to plant my garden today...my first garden!!! Yay! So...I have some bell peppers and cayenne peppers to plant with my tomatoes, and had planned to also add some eggplants, too. Are they OK to plant in the same bed with tomatoes?

Thanks!

Yes, that is Okay.

Just remember all those plants love heat and energy so you'll want to make sure they don't cast too much shade on to each other. The tomato plants will get very big.

I put my eggplants to the south of the tomatoes. They just don't normally grow as tall as the tomatoes.

Thanks, ya'll! I am planting them in a 2x4 and will have the tomatoes on the north side with the peppers and eggplant in front. :-)
