john, how would you compare the taste of the Gobstopper to that of the hybrid Sungold? i've read that the Sungold is one of the sweetest cherries.

igarden-I've never grown Sungold but I tasted them a few year's ago. They were very sweet.
Gobstopper isn't as sweet and has more of a tomato flavor. Tasty tomato. john

I have the feeling that Gobstopper is going to taste similar to Sungold Select ll which I grew this year. Not as sweet as the hybrid with more tomato flavor. Ami
