I bought this tree on Sunday, it is rather viscious and has stabbed me twice already.

never thought I'd say this but erh.., Nice fat trunk. BBit wrinkled though.

Dread to think how many years that was kept in the ground! :lol:

That's interesting material. I wonder how it will look after some development. Keep us updated!

I will certainly post after Friday. I am not sure yet which will be the front, It has a nice area for carving one one side but that loses the curve. We will see. I dont know how long it was in the ground, it has to be 20 years plus. The diameter of the trunk is 10cm and a bit.

Most interesting Pyracantha specimen Geoff... Wish mine were that highly developed. Lots of year of advance training you have saved with that fat trunk! Please, do keep us updated. I would like to see how my own Pyracantha specimen could go in a few years from now... Nice

Funny to see such a big fat trunk in such a little pot. Actually kind of wonderful that so little roots can support a tree this big in all of its needs.
I really love the tree, please keep us updated!

Took it to our workshop and did a bit of pruning. I removed as many spines as I could see, and some branches that were in the wrong place. I did choose what I think is the best front. However the tree is covered in buds so I am going to allow it to flower before doing too much more.
I may drop it out of the pot to look at the base of the rootball as it is unstable and the bottom of the is not flat. I will take some more pictures and add them here.
I am going to see the person I bought it from next week so I can find out some more about the age and how long it has been in the pot then.
