Top Tip
Train Pyracantha against walls or fences by tying young branches to supports; this enhances its structure and encourages dense growth.
How to Water
Water Pyracantha deeply after planting and regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. Once established, water only during dry periods, ensuring the soil doesn’t become overly saturated.
How to Plant
Plant Pyracantha in well-drained, fertile soil in a sunny or partially shaded location. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball, place the plant, and backfill with soil. Firm gently and water well. Space plants 60-90cm apart for hedges or as desired for individual growth.
