I used to live in AZ (Phoenix area for 46 years). I over-wintered a few
tomatoes every year. I cut them back hard after they were done fruiting,
and covered them up with sheets in the event of a rare frost (average 2-3
nights a year in Phoenix). They usually would do well for up to three
years. I had pepper plants that lasted for many years, and grew very tall
if I didn't prune them back. They continued to fruit well even after the
major haircuts... Also ornamental peppers that I trimmed as a hedge for
over ten years, and they were still there and doing well when I left 1.5
years ago. Don't know about melons....
