Pyracantha - 'Firethorn' (White flowers, berries) Nurtured with care at our nursery at Zero Bonsai, the young Pyracantha (Firethorn) is a vibrant, multi-seasonal favourite that brings dynamic energy to any collection. Renowned for its extraordinary ornamental value, this tough semi-evergreen shrub transitions seamlessly through the year with striking visual flair. In late spring, its fine, deep-green foliage becomes nearly obscured by a dense blanket of fragrant, starry white flowers. As summer turns to autumn, these blossoms give way to heavy clusters of glossy, berry-like pome fruits in fiery shades of red, orange, or yellow that hold onto the tree long into winter, providing an ever-changing spectacle of colour. Caring for a young Pyracantha is remarkably straightforward, making it an ideal choice for both novice growers and experienced bonsai enthusiasts. It thrives in a bright, full-sun position, which is essential for triggering heavy flowering and rich berry production. To support its active growth, keep the well-draining soil consistently moist—especially during the spring flowering window—while taking care not to leave the roots waterlogged. Gentle directional pruning after the spring bloom helps preserve developing berries while encouraging fine branch ramification, ensuring your young Firethorn matures into an increasingly spectacular living display year after year.
