I have not grown a whole heck of a lot of cherries. The first one I recall was a sweet 100 plant that sprawled. It was work to find those tiny tomatoes, and there were hundreds, perhaps thousands of small, marble sized tomatoes, that tasted amazingly good. The next year I grew it again, but on a trellis, and it did not taste remotely similar and production was lacking as well.

At some point I tried sunsugar and that has been my favorite since. Last year I tried Sungold and it was good, but has thicker skin and splits more. I didn't think it was bigger, but perhaps larger trusses.

I grew Ron's Carbon Copy last year. It was not very sweet, actually kind of sour. Very plum like. I have seen others call it sweet, so I wonder if that was not completely stable?

My black cherry got mismarked last year, so I didn't get to try it. Should have some soon, this year. But I really love sunsugar, and I'd be surprised if I am swayed.

Can't wait to try that Karma, though.
