I bought two Top Hat blueberry plants this year and placed them in good size
pots to grow outdoors in late spring to early autumn and move under cover
for the rest of the year. Now, my question is mainly about pruning. One of
the plants is quite compact and the other is racing away in long shoots.
When and how should I prune these plants and how long will it be before I
can expect to get fruit from them?

Right now there is no sign of flowering, just shoot and leaf growth. I have
placed the two together to facilitate pollination.

Look forward to hearing what I should be doing and when.

the best advice can be found from The Dorset Blueberry Company. What
they don't know aabout blueberries isn't worth knowing! Besides - they
say it easier than I could
