Tomatillo Help in Texas

hornstrider · May 12, 2010

My onions are about ready to harvest. In fact I will harvest this weekend. This will leave some empty space in my garden. I planted 150 onion so I have quite a bit of space. Question??........Is it too late to plant Tomatillo's??........I grew them last year, but got them in the ground earlier. I know they do well in the Texas heat, but was curious if they will set fruit if I plant this late. I have access to 1 1/2 foot plants.....Also maybe some suggestions as to what I can grow this late in the season.......BTW I have plenty of squash, and cucumber......I am pretty sure I can still plant okra.........correct??......Thanks in advance.
