other black cherries?
Tania just posted about Austin's Black Cherry and one of my seed producers is currently growing a new one called Black Opal which I'll offer in my seed offer next Jan if all goes well, and Kazachka is also a dark cherry, but I'd need to explain a few traits of that last one with you. And I do like it and could send you some seeds since I've been offering it in my annual seed offer here.

Carolyn,
As always, thank you for the information. Yes, I understand about Mr Sapp.
I would really like to try Black Opal, if you are successful. I grew quite a few cherry/grape varieties this year and had a bumper crop. It's really amazing what some varieties will yield. The darks are my favorites, but the big producers are hard to pass up. Mischka, Dormitor, Riesentraube, Indigo Rose and Jaune Flamme each produced more fruit than I could process. I'd love to have a new black variety to fool around with.
Please tell me about Kazachka.
Thanks,
Mike
