Pyracantha in bloom


Pyracantha in bloom (Pyracantha)

It will be all red with berries in the fall. Food for overwintering birds. Nice plant but very thorny.

Nice but dread pruning them

Me too I have one growing along the fence looks great in flower but I have had numerous scratches from it tending plants at the back of the border!

Yes, they are a nuisance that way are not they?
I would like to prune it little closer to the main stems next year to make it a little smaller bush. Let my DH to take gas trimmer or even chain saw (if needed) to it. It is getting out of control. But I have to admit that I love to see it covered with red berries in the fall.
