Hi Cipollaz,

Hope the following helps:

Moneymaker:
Indeterminate. Round red fruits in enormous clusters. Early/fast-ripening, will produce fruit within 4 months of sowing the seed. Vigorous plant better adapted to humid conditions than some. Flavor is good, medium sweetness.

Grosse Lisse:
Indeterminate. Heavy yield of large (200 grams+), round red fruit. Mid to late season. Vigorous, adapted to humid areas. Moderate sweetness, low to moderate acidity.

Russian Red:
Late-maturing, approx. 75 days. The fruits are red, small, and juicy with a great flavor. Will grow in marginal conditions (very hardy), is a tree-type plant and reaches about five feet high.
