I have two I like. They have similar names but aren't the same fruit. Blue Berry is a standard round cherry with blue over red on the shoulders and brownish pink below. It's got good red tomato taste with a combination of subtle tang and subtle funk. Blueberries is a smaller cherry with lots of anthro blue although it does have some sweetness too. Mine are mostly dark blue growing in full sun with the occasional spot of pink on the blossom end. Both are very productive. Blue Berry I usually snack on or add to a jar of pickled cherry tomatoes for variety. Blueberries are good in baked goods, quiche, and with pesto in pasta. Roasting kicks them up a notch.
There are a few larger blues that are good too, but the cherries are smaller bites and easier to get people to try. I use Green Doctors to convince people to try GWR varieties.
