Default DCP---huh???

I found this photo labeled dcp. Since I have no idea what I was referring to, does anyone else? It would likely be a determinate.

In my business, a DCP is a dynamic cone penetrometer. That surely does not answer your question, however.

I have used DCP to mean 'Dr. Carolyn Pink'. Would this possibly be the larger size that shows up at times?

Barb, as in corona

I have no good size reference for the fruits in that picture and both Dr. C and Dr. C Pink grow in clusters of about 8 and I don't see that in that picture either well.

With no size reference and only two fruits showing and with those fruits not showing any color, I really don't see how the variety can easily be identified.

I think Corona Barb has the right suggestion. Dr. Carolyn Pink. And the reason, Carolyn, this wouldn't have looked like DCP was because the seeds I got weren't correct. Turned out to be a red cherry. I forgot completely about this until it was mentioned because it wasn't a Dr. Carolyn Pink.

If only all such quandries could be resolved so easily!

Thanks.

Barb
