I'm going to try growing Sun Sugar next year. I hear they taste similar but that SS doesn't crack as much AND it doesn't get that funky taste that I really dislike in the heat of summer from SG.

I agree that most cherries are sweet with no complexity to the flavor. I really liked Rosella last year and wish I'd grown it again. This year I LOVED Blush, but didn't grow Sungold with which to compare it.
