Recommended cherries?

Matt's Wild Cherry takes over your bed because the blueberry-sized fruit tend to split open and drop seeds which readily re-sow themselves. Too small, in my opinion, to really enjoy them much, and too easy to end up with hundreds of seedlings.

Jaune Flamme is apricot-sized. I like them quite a lot. They have different degrees of ripeness so try them at different states until they are of the right taste and texture.

As for pink/red cherries, I too have looked far and wide for a decent-tasting one. I had given up until I grew Sweet Quartz F1. The flavor totally blew me away. I will never be without it in a garden.
