Indian Firethorn (Pyracantha Navaho Firethorn) - Shrub - 10 (litres)

Description

These abundantly fruity plants are a popular choice for creating colourful hedges and backdrops. Firethorns produce berries of different colours, with the Navaho Firethorn bearing bright orange fruits. These appear in such great numbers, that from a distance, your hedge will seem to glow like a fireplace. The berries' great numbers, as well as their lack of appeal to birds and wildlife, mean you can enjoy their colour through autumn and into winter. As the name implies, Navaho Firethorn also have small thorns on their stems and branches, which makes them a good choice for security screens to keep out unwanted pests. All of our Hedging Plants allow you to style your garden in a range of different ways, not just because of their varied colours, but also because of the way you choose to trim and maintain them. Prune them regularly to achieve a neat, clean form, or let them bush-out a little to create a more natural appearance. Whether you're using a hedge to give your garden some privacy, or as protection from the weather, road and noise pollution, you'll want to choose a plant that complements the rest of your garden's visual appearance. All of our Hedging Plants have evergreen foliage – giving you some pleasant greenery to look at all-year-round.
