HI. I am new to this so forgive me if i make a mess of this. I have two pyracantha but do not know which type they are. They are in pots on my balcony in a "sunny in the morning and shady in the evening" position. One has orange berries and is beautiful, the other should have red berries but doesn't have any. It is about 5 feet tall, fairly sparse and I have had it for about six months. Will it have berries next year? Or, am I doing something wrong?
Hi David, my experience of growing Pyracantha here is that they don't thrive or flower in acid, potash poor soils (and we have lots of them). An easy solution is a handful of dry woodash, gently forked around the plant. Works like magic. If woodash is not available, enquire at your garden centre for a chemical source of lime and potash. Good Luck Richard
