It's not that they're in sun because the ones hiding under leaves do it

then each fruiting spur proceeds in much the same way, the one at the
end of the tip first then the others.

There is probably a logical explanation why but I can't work it out!
Can someone enlighten me please?
It's because they are the first flowers to open
