super snow white is one of my favourite cherries. beautiful pastel yellow-ivory. delicious sweet rich tomato flav.
I like ambrosia gold better than sungold. they do not split, a more manageable sized plant and were way earlier for me. KO |

This year I've found a very good Black Cherry substitute for me.
A new great Russian CV called Dikovinka (Rara Avis in English). Tall indeterminate plant (higher than 2m in my greenhouse) with a huge number of black-dusky rose large cherries. A very balanced flavour with a sweet-fruity accent. It's like Sungold in black for me Seeds will be available soon - from October.

Andrey,put me on that list for the "rare bird" and I'll see what I can do getting back to you with some of the categories you specified. I'll try to do that before I have to send most of my seeds to Shawn in VT who is taking over doing the hard part of the offer. Another consideration is that there are some good ones my seed producers are doing this summer,but too early to even talk about seed production here. I am so behind with everything it's just horrible,but what else can I do,when bills pile up,I'm homebound and can't get out, my 6 month extension to get my taxes in is up in Oct and I have no clue where all that stuff is, and on and on. On the bright side,I still love my many magazines I sub to as well as new books to order,as well as dark bittersweet chocolate and right now the peaches and melons that were sent to me from George in CO. It's US Open Tennis time, but not allowed out to my LV/DR where the big TV is,b/c of the step,so check the website to see what's happening.Haven't checked to see how Azarenka is doing. OK,time for a fresh peach and reminding you that yes,I still have a few of those Ribera seeds set aside for you,the multiflora as shown with the elderly man holding the plants with fruits.. Carolyn

OK, Carolyn This list almost empty right now
Yes, Dikovinka has a multiflora type of a truss, but not for every single truss And Vika Azarenka is pregnant as well as Darya Domracheva our Belarusian 3 times Biatlon Olympics champion
