In MN, not much is ripe right now. I'm hoping that the Dwarf Beauty King tastes as good as it looks...but it's a couple of days out yet.

On my deck and also one in the garden grows a "puck"...which may be a grandchild of the original dwarf varieties Livingston discovered.

I am in love with the flavor: tart and fruity, vaguely reminiscent of a wild raspberry or gooseberry. Johnson Cherry exhibits that to slightly lesser degree...and I'm hoping DBK does as well. Also growing this year is Dwarf Arctic Rose (and Dr Yeager's Tiny Tim); this "berry-like quality" is barely perceptible among them.
