Awesome replacement for Esterina which to me is sweet, but bland. Super productive. Only an occasional splitter. This is another "keeper" for me.

I'm glad you tried it; I got the seeds last year when Burpee had their 5 for $15 - you may have told me about that.
I grew 2 plants of it; one in the earthbox and the other in a root pouch. It was super productive until July when I couldn't stand going out (heat) and stopped watering everything.
Also in EB, the companion plant didn't stand a chance; so fall season (soon) I will plant it by itself.
I will also grow SunLemon instead of Esterina, which I did like at one time but it got Powdery Mildew in January. I think Esterina might be better when it is warm out.

BTW - I got those seeds you mentioned in another thread. Looks like another big cherry from Japan. I will share some seeds if it is a winner.
