Pruning Blackberries: Key Points
From a conversation with Sacramento County Master Gardener Michael Stinson
• Blackberry plants are perennials that can live 15 to 20 years, but each individual cane only last around two seasons, with a notable exception.
• First year canes are called primocanes. Second year canes, the ones that flower and fruit, are floricanes. Fall pruning is all about removing the floricanes.
