Sounds like a good plan, Feldon. Sure, try a few larger fruited varieties, but odds are that you're probably going to have the best success with the smaller fruited and earlier varieties. Just about any cherry type will do. Sungold is fabulous, so is Sun Cherry, Black Cherry, Green Grape, Dr. Carolyn, Gardener's Delight.
Also, Stupice, Matina, Bloody Butcher, Kimberly. I know the first three will set well in Sept, yet to find out about Kim. I figure it's going to do just fine, as it's still setting for me now.
And Silvery Fir Tree.
Have had good luck with Anna for fall crop in the past. Another one you might want to consider for fall is Kosovo -- it has been really early and prolific for me this year.
Jaune Flamme -- excellent choice.
