Pyracantha coccinea, commonly known as scarlet firethorn, is native from southeastern Europe to the Caucasus. It is an evergreen to semi-evergreen shrub that typically grows to 8-10' tall and to 12' wide. It is noted for spring white flowers in drooping clusters, glossy green leaves, needle-like spines, and orange-red berries in fall. Foliage is evergreen in mild climates, but semi-evergreen to mostly deciduous in temperate regions. Impenetrable shrub for informal hedges, hedgerows. dense screens or property lines. Also effective when massed to cover slopes. Group in shrub borders. Espaliers trained on wall or fence. Grown in average, dry to medium moisture, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Best in fertile soils with sharp drainage. Good tolerance for drought conditions.

Growing Instructions for the Scarlet Firethorn

The seeds have a period of dormancy. They can be planted outdoors in the fall or winter for spring germination or they can be cold stratified to simulate winter conditions and to break their dormancy at any time of the year. 1. Soak the seeds in water for 24 hours. 2. Put the seeds in a ziplock bag. 3. Put the bag in the refrigerator and leave it there for 12 weeks. 4. The seeds like moist, well-drained soil. Use a sterile seed starter mix or a mixture of half potting soil and half sand, perlite or vermiculite. The sterile seed starter mix prevents soil fungi from damaging the seeds and the seedlings. 5. Put the soil in a pot. 6. Sow the seeds on the soil. 7. Cover the seeds with a layer of soil that is ¼ of an inch thick. 8. Water the soil so that it is moist but not wet. The seeds will sprout in 1 to 2 weeks. 8. When the seedlings are a few inches tall, they can be transplanted.

These are seeds and it's hard to tell how they will come up. The company was kind enough to send extra seeds, so five stars in advance.
