Among the Seven Species themselves, when brachot are the same, which species takes priority based on its position in the verse (Devarim 8:8)?

BlessingsBrachotBracha Rishona

Synopsis

All authorities agree that proximity to the word 'eretz' (land) in the verse determines priority among the Seven Species. The second 'eretz' creates a reset: items closer to the second 'eretz' outrank items further from the first 'eretz'. This means dates (second after the second 'eretz') precede grapes (third after the first 'eretz').
