Taste was superior! No bitterness even at the end of the season. Dill pickles from them were soft but good flavor. Sweet relish was very good. |

The plants were not that "compact" for me, growing to over five feet in height on a trellis. Tasty fruit, especially when harvested small. My only complaint was that the plants were not terribly productive, although that may have been a function of our very hot weather. |
