Bump... How did other Sungold comparisons come out? How many "votes" for Ambrosia Gold?

I gave up on Sungold maybe 10 years ago -- the splitting issue, of course. My wife thinks that Esterina tastes better than Sungold. (?) I'm also going to grow Sunchocola next season. A member here kindly sent me a few seeds to try. I envision Sungold + Chocolate Cherry. Hope I'm halfway close to being correct.

And I should add that one of the F4 19X from DFollett/KarenO was spectacular! These are small plants at a max of 2-ft. but still a big producer for the size of the plant. Mine did best in a 12" basket. The trick is waiting until they are of the correct ripeness to get a really sweet, fruity taste. It is quite unique! This one is a keeper!
