hey matt, i have seen this video the day after you uploaded it on YT ( highly informative!). The AP was given to me as gift by a friend from Arizona, don't have any other info except it is a prolific bloomer and the fruit is smaller but a lot sweeter compare to American Beauty.

I live in Escondido, CA. I'm so happy someone in my area is trying to make this a successful crop in the U.S. Bravo to you guys!
