Various Cherry Tomatoes, taste and ease

NarnianGarden · July 7, 2013

To all you folks who have experience with succesfully growing cherry varieties, what would you recommend? (sorry, if there already is a thread somewhere discussing this ..)
Would love to learn from what you have discovered in different parts of the world.

For example, I am thinking of Maskotka / Koralik, two Nothern European cultivars that supposedly have high yield of fruit and also good disease resistance. (I know Maskotka has been grown in Finland in a greenwhouse, but as I have no greenhouse, I am eager to know how these fare in a patio/balcony enviroment..)
Any eperiences and comparisons, with these or other similar varieties?

The taste is the most important factor, of course - I have a bush tomato that I got from a store, but while the fruit tastes ok, it is nothing spectacular that would justify the price of 10 €...

Rather invest the money to different seeds and plant them for variety and fun - I found out that almost any empty box does magnificently as a container, as long as the soil is good.
