I don't think it matters. I planted 2 sweet 100s nerve to 2
Rapunzel's. They both grew alike in the spring putting out lots of
fruit, but when the high 90s and 100's hit in summer, the sweet 100s
died back and got a fungal disease. The Rapunzel's just kept growing,
kept ripening fruit, and no disease. When temps dropped back to the
low 90s it started blooming again right about the time I gathered a
couple bowls full of fruit. By the time we are all of that, new
fruit was ripening.
