Pyracantha 'Graberi', commonly known as Graber’s Firethorn, is a striking evergreen shrub admired for its vibrant year-round appeal and tough, adaptable nature. It features glossy green foliage and thorny branches that make it an excellent choice for use as a privacy screen, security hedge, or espalier against a wall. In late spring, clusters of small white flowers appear, which are soon followed by abundant bright orange-red berries in fall and winter. These berries not only provide stunning seasonal color but also attract birds, adding life and movement to the garden.
Graber’s Firethorn is highly versatile and easy to grow, thriving in full sun to partial shade and tolerating a variety of soils, including poor or dry conditions. It’s well-suited for USDA Zones 7–10, making it a favorite in temperate to warm climates. Its dense, thorny growth makes it ideal for natural fencing or barriers, while its decorative berries and flowers offer strong ornamental value. With minimal maintenance and excellent drought tolerance once established, Pyracantha 'Graberi' is a reliable, showy shrub that delivers multi-season beauty and functional landscape use.
