help for tuberous begonias from Italy

Busto arsizio, Italy

This year I have planted for the first time tuberous begonias (tuberhybrida), which are a novelty here in Italy. They had and exceptianal growth but some had become too tall (50/60 cm)and have flowers only on the top and have a long strong stem. Can I prune/trim them to look more bushy? I know now it is too late in season but your suggestions will be useful for next year. I hope I made myself understood (forgive my mistakes...)
Thanks
