artichoke and oca

my jerusalem artichokes  are grown around the boundary bed just wondering if the oca could grow in front of them as an edge as long as I give them room to flop? Has anyone tried this?

I haven't but would just wonder if the JAs would invade the oca's space, unless they were about a foot away?

I think the ocas would Prefer full sun so if they were on the south side of the JAs in a east to west row you would still get a good crop. if your row went south to north instead then i don't think it would be worth it

one side east and one west so half and half, which is about the same as they grew in my garden this year so should be ok.
