Hey All,

I've grown the Garden Huckleberry in the past and loved them in pie as well.
The following year I tried the Sunberry, aka Wonderberry, and the berries
were quite a bit smaller. I would have to say, that overall, I liked the
Garden Huckleberry better but would still like to give the Sunberry another
shot. I am also looking at growing the Schwarwenberren and the Chiquelite
berries which seem to be closely related to the first two I have mentioned.
Has anyone grown all of these for comparison?

Good luck with all your harvests,
