Default Who has grown Orange Sunshine F1?

Im looking at possibly giving this one a try this year. How did it taste, what were its growth habits, and would you grow it again? Here is the link https://www.totallytomato.com/dp.asp?pID=00525&c=51

Certainly, the way it is described :

"(VFF) The qualities of these bright beauties just can't be beat! Beautiful orange colored, 1/2 oz. cherries are firm and sweet as the ever popular Sungold!
Adds a dash of color and flavor to salads, pizzas, sautes, and salsas. Prolific yields."


sounds very good. I like the size. I stopped growing SunGold because of its small size and easily cracking. I like large cherries.

I grew this last year and didn't this year. it wasn't anything like their description. I grew orange zinger this year and liked them much better. I still have orange sunshine seeds. If you want 5 of them pm me and I will share what I have left and try to do a side by side this year of the two. I will grow orange zinger next year for sure. I had the orange zinger in a high tunnel and had tomatoes on it until this past week.
