Pruning of Josteberries

Q:  Can you please give me some advice on the pruning of josteberries. I have a number of plants on my allotment and they are very vigorous growers and need to be reduced a bit.  Rick

A: Normally josteberries pruned similarly to a gooseberry and they fruit on last year’s wood. You therefore can remove and prune the wood that has fruited this year leaving the new growth to fruit for next year.
