I've grown Gregori's, not sure if it is the same as Sasha's.
They are quite different, although both are indeterminates
and set ripe fruit early. Sasha's produces 3-6 oz orange-red,
somewhat seedy, juicy fruit, not particularly sweet but with
a good balanced flavor, some uneven ripening. Quite a small
plant for an indeterminate, similar to Aurora in that respect.

Gregori's Altai is a larger plant, with good production of large
pink fruit, kind of rough and gnarled looking in rainy weather.
It had mild, sweet flavor, a bit bland in cold weather to my
palate. It was the first plant with fruit 12oz and up to ripen
for me in last year's "rained half the summer" weather.
