The firethorns are all tough, very hardy shrubs which tolerate a wide range of demanding conditions, including shaded and exposed positions, and make dense thorny evergreen growth ideal for intruder-proof hedging or for training on walls to display their profuse and brightly coloured berries.
Pyracantha make attractive free-standing shrubs, although growth is then often more compact and arching. ‘Red Column’ is a reliable, vigorous form, with dense growth and strong branches covered in autumn with masses of long-lasting berries.
Supplied in approx.11cm/13cm pots.
