I never bother with the dwarf ones. The climbing and more
economical/productive on space, and are far less likely re stringiness

I am planning to make a larger climbing frame and do more of them
next year; this is not the first year they have done a lot better
than the dwarf varieties for me. In particular, most of the latter
seem to be bred for cropping once, as you also observe.
