Thanks, Mike. It is just beautiful. Also, its leaves are quite large and look more oval than the regular variaties. Actually, your bush seems more exotic with that look.
I have seen a couple of sturdy Pyracantha varieties in Oakville, South Ontario. If not trained, they tend to become leggy. I have seen gorgeous trellises of 5 m (15 feet) tall in England, only with this plant, pruned to a very dense, 5 inch thick wall...Rob
I keep mine boxy. It does grow very fast and densely though. Here is another pic of how I trim it like a box basically (6 ft tall app.)Far left, I have one on either side of the front steps.
