Thompson and Morgan Pyracantha Orange Glow Plant Pot 1.7L

Pyracantha Orange Glow, commonly known as Firethorn, is a tough, resilient and easy-to-grow shrub which will thrive in virtually any garden. Grown mainly for its bright display of fiery orange berries, which provide wonderful autumn colour to the garden, although this evergreen, hardy shrub brings colour and structure to the garden all year-round with its glossy green leaves and then the extra addition of bee-friendly white flower clusters in spring. Pyracantha is a thorny shrub and virtually impenetrable, making it effective for use as a security hedge, although it also works really well as a wall-trained shrub against the house or as a free-standing tall shrub in any area of the garden. Left unpruned, this variety can reach a height of up to 3m, but it responds extremely well to a hard prune in autumn or spring, so it can easily be kept much smaller if necessary. Grow Pyracantha plants as free-standing shrubs or trained against walls and fences. Plant Pyracantha in any well-drained, reliably moist soil in sun or semi-shade. Choose a position with shelter from cold, drying winds. Feed and water Pyracantha plants regularly until fully established. Prune free-standing shrubs in early spring, removing damaged and poorly positioned shoots. For wall-trained shrubs, tie in main shoots to form part of the permanent framework, and cut back unwanted shoots to the main stem. Position: Full Sun/Partial Shade. Height: Up to 3m when fully established. Spread: Up to 3m when fully established. Images shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity. Different growing conditions might vary the results. Image may be included for illustration of supply, but can vary due to seasonality changes (e.g. deciduous plants lose leaves in colder months).
