Elaeagnus/ Pyracantha arch (Elaeagnus x ebbingei (Elaeagnus))

I've been training these for several years. The pyracantha is dangerous but beautiful in summer and autumn.

How tall are they V, do they form an arch? and welcome to Goy:-)

About 8ft but I've severely chopped them. The pyracantha arches easily and its branches and prickles hold the elaeagnus twigs until they harden. Looks lovely with berries and clematis.

Brilliant, I`ve a couple of pyracanthas but never even given a thought to training them.
