Have you trialed the three together to see what the difference between them is? Curious how similar or different they are.
Yes,I have trialed all three in the same season,sort of.

The first one bred by Harris was Moreton Hybrid, and it's a very soft fruit and doesn't taste as good as the other two.

I like Jet Star and Supersonic about equally,but will give a nod to Supersonic on taste in most summers.

The one I really like was Starpak, but,well,no longer available

It was a new one at the time and my father had planted a large field of them next to one of our orchards, I can still picture them even now.Many of Dad's farmer friends came to take a look and taste and many of them grew them for quite a few years until they went out of production.
