I grew Sungold x Mom's F3 pink in '09, and it was a darned good pink cherry. This is the one that Denise refers to as Plant 2 on Tatiana's site.

This year I grew Sweet as Linda, which is a (mostly) stable cross of Sungold x Marianna's Peace. Another nice pink cherry, fruits somewhat similar in taste, size and appearance to Sweet Quartz F1. I had to make an effort not to get the two mixed up when picking. Tends towards the sweet side, but also has enough complexity and tartness to keep it interesting. I don't really care much for tomatoes that are just "sweet" and little else...
