Berry Box® Pyracomeles

Berry Box Pyracomeles is a fascinating, compact evergreen shrub from Proven Winners that is truly one-of-a-kind, a novel hybrid of Osteomeles and Pyracantha that delivers the dazzling berry display of firethorn without the fierce thorns. In spring, tiny white flowers cover the glossy foliage, giving way to a spectacular autumn and winter show of brilliant reddish-orange berries that gradually deepen to a cheerful red. Heat-tolerant, self-fruitful, and completely thorn-free, it's an outstanding choice for warm-climate borders and foundation plantings.

Plant Berry Box Pyracomeles in full sun to part sun in well-drained soil. This heat-loving evergreen thrives in the warmest spots in the garden and is an excellent low-maintenance choice for borders, low hedges, and foundation plantings in warm climates. Water during establishment, then enjoy its drought tolerance once established. No thorns means it's safe to plant near pathways and play areas. Its self-fruitful nature means you can enjoy the full berry display from a single plant. Feed with a balanced fertilizer in spring for the most vigorous growth and berry production.
