Both  BOYSENBERRY 
BUTTERCUP and JURASSIC PARK are outstanding, but JP is so much  darker that I

as well as BB. 


I've grown both of these.  Both grow well for me.  EARTH SONG  would be my 
choice.  But, if you're expecting something that looks like  Edith, they don't.  
Not in my opinion.  EARTH SONG comes close from a  distance, but up close is 
more coarse and a little muddy.  Doesn't have  Edith's clear tones.  
 
I've not grown JURASSIC PARK .  Could be because Best Bet never  grew well 
for me. But I do like it.
