I used to grow it when I lived in Fl. I don't know the history, but I planted it once and then it came up all by itself for years.
Yes, I'd definitely say it is disease resistant, heat resistant, drought resistant, hurricane resistant, probably even nuclear resistant. It survived several years of having a toddler climb all over it every day, picking tomatoes. She loved it so much I finally quit trying to "manage" it and just let it take over the bed.
I liked it because it has a terrific, real tomato flavor, not insipidly sweet or bland like a lot of cherry tomatoes.
