St. John's, NL (Zone 5b) | November 2004 | neutral
This is one of the hardiest firethorns, to zone 5 (the only one that can grow in Newfoundland!). It is also relatively small (to 6 feet)...Read More and ideal in colder areas, to grow as a topiary against a south wall. The fruit are bright orange-red. The only drawback is that this selection is very prone to scab and fireblight.
this plant works good as an outdoor bonsai tree. Just be careful when youre training it not to poke yourself on one of the thorns ;)
