Do you grow hybrids? - Page 3

I think Ramapo and Momotaro/Odoriko will always be in my garden. I am also trying Moreton Hybrid this year. I had Brandy Boy Hybrid last year but it was nothing like Brandywine and blah so it is permanently out.

Flavor is my number 1 consideration, and whether it is a heirloom or a hybrid, if it tastes great I'll grow it!

Haroog???? I thought it was an offshoot of Rutgers. I know it was initially developed by Auburn in the 60s.
