Care level: Easy - despite its maturity and considerable size, Pyracantha is a hardy, easy-to-manage species, ideal even for those new to outdoor bonsai.
Interesting fact about its thorns:
Thanks to its sturdy thorns, Pyracantha is used to create impenetrable hedges. It is often found along highways, where it is planted to prevent vehicles from crossing into the opposite lane. This hardiness and protective quality are also reflected in its nature as a long-lived, robust bonsai.
