Dwarf cherry toms

So I got some of these to try in hanging baskets and mixed into some landscaping as edible ornamentals. I have red robin, tumbling tom, minibel, and patio princess. Has anyone grown any of these? I'm just figuring they'd be fun to play around with.

I also bought Megabite, but I think that's more of a small determinate than a dwarf?

Hi Cara Rose,

I grew Red Robins this winter. They don't tumble, so I don't know how good they would be in your hanging baskets. I grew mine in 10" pots, about the size of a gallon milk jug and kept them on my sunny windowsills. They grew no more than 18" tall. They are very robust with rugose leaves and sturdy stems.
