Pyracantha ‘Saphyr Orange’

Pyracantha ‘Saphyr Orange’ is a modern cultivar of Firethorn, specifically bred for superior health and garden performance. Its most important attribute is its excellent resistance to common diseases like fireblight and scab, which ensures the plant remains healthy and produces a reliable display year after year. The result of this vigour is a truly spectacular show of countless, brilliant orange berries that smother the branches in dense clusters. This fiery display is held against a backdrop of dark green evergreen foliage.

This versatile and robust shrub is ideal for a wide range of uses in garden design. Its strong, branching structure makes it perfect for training against a wall or fence, creating a magnificent vertical feature of foliage and fruit. Thanks to its dense growth and formidable thorns, it also forms a highly effective intruder-proof hedge that is both functional and beautiful. ‘Saphyr Orange’ is also a great choice for supporting wildlife, as its flowers attract pollinators and its berries offer a feast for birds through the colder months.
