Pyracantha Orange Glow - Firethorn

Orange Glow is a vigorous orange-berried form of Pyracantha with a more erect habit than other varieties. These tough prickly shrubs are easy to grow and train readily up a wall or other support and also make a good dense hedge. The white flowers are borne in sprays in summer and the orange berries that follow provide a bright splash of colour as well as food for birds in the winter.
