Pyracantha is an evergreen plant that is easy to grow and provides seasonal interest and berries. Even the most novice gardener can handle the simple care of the firethorn bush. This is a tall shrub or small tree at 2 to 5 m tall and almost as wide. Pick either a sunny, shady, or a partially sunny location for growing firethorn shrubs. They also thrive in either dry or moist soils, although damper areas produce bigger plants. Therefore, you may want to choose a fertile, moist location when planting firethorn. The plant’s spectacular looks are paired with prickly leaves that snag and scrape. Plant the shrub away from doorways, gates, and entryways. You can trim them at any time of the year as long as you take no more than one-third of the growth. To ensure fruits, prune in early spring before the flowers form.
