Care and placement:

Watering: Needs a lot of moisture. Avoid wetting the flowers during watering to preserve their beauty and longevity.
Care level: Easy - despite its maturity and significant size, the Pyracantha is a hardy and easy-to-manage species, also ideal for those new to outdoor bonsai.
Curiosity about thorns:
Thanks to its robust thorns, Pyracantha is used to form impenetrable hedges. It is not uncommon to find it along motorways, where it is planted to prevent vehicles from crossing into the opposite lane. This characteristic of resistance and protection is also reflected in its nature as a long-lived and robust bonsai.
Important note: Each bonsai is a unique living being. The shape and measurements are approximate. The pot is included in the dimensions. The color and shape of the pot may vary from the photo.
