I created a garden in a space that had rubble, trash and weeds. The only thing I left there were two bushes that I couldn't identify that looked like they could amount to something. When they had beautiful purple berries in the fall I was able to figure out what they were. Now, almost three years later they stand in my beautiful garden but after that first year they have not had berries. Last winter I pruned them way back thinking they might need the pruning. They are twice as big now, almost too big. Did I do the right thing? Do they need pruning to bloom or what is the problem. Without berries they are taking up valuable space for something more productive. There isn't much literature on Beautiberry bushes and how to care for them. Can anyone help me out?
