Favorites

[gardengalrn]

For most purposes my main garden is coming to a close either due to extreme heat or disease and of course my waning interest I'm already taking stock of the seeds I have and am turning to what to try next. So I thought I would start the usual "favorites" post so I could get an idea of what people liked this year and why. If you had to pick only 5, what would they be?
1. Earl's Faux: Fabulous taste and has produced very well again this year. Hands down overall favorite.
2. Gregori's Altai: Early and delicious, good production in a bucket. Large blemish free fruits.
3. Cherokee Chocolate: I gave away all my CP and kept just one of these this year. It was sickly and didn't produce but a couple of fruit but the taste!!! Based on nothing else, I have to include this one.
4. Kellogg's Breakfast: Was early this year in a bucket. Wonderful taste and I liked them better than AGG this year (gasp!). My AGG were a little tarte this year but I do have one that is just producing now in a bucket so maybe I'll alter the opinion after those.
5. Brandy Boy: Dependable producer, great taste. Fruits can be rather ugly but very good taste.

There are others that really stood out and some didn't get a fair shake this year due to my lack of management with DH in and out of the hospital.
