Very nice!

You are getting a lot of recessives stacking up in some of your F1's this winter. Is X57 one of your working cherry lines?

Looks great! How many generations are you able to cycle in a year?

Mark, X57 is one of a few F1 hybrids Fred and I are testing. Steve, I think we can get three generations a year, but not much bandwidth yet - greenhouse space is limiting.

Fruit from a second F1 plant, same cross. Among other more subtle things green vs gold stripes.
