Illinois Everbearing is a very vigorous grower.
Someone on this list, or in POMONA, years ago, made the comment that 
trying to prune/train Illinois Everbearing was like trying to train a 
firehose.  I agree.

But, to me, that's one of its endearing features, in addition to its 
heavy production of extremely tasty berries.  You can plant a small 
specimen, and in a very short timeframe, you'll have a nice, large 
productive tree.
