. Dreer's garden book / Henry A. Nursery Catalogue. v CHOICE HARDY SHRUBS i PHMELIM Pyracantha (Crataegus) Coccinea Lalandi (Firethorn or Evergreen Thorn) See Color Plate on Opposite Page There is no other fruiting evergreen Shrub that is so attractive throughout the year as this fiery Thorn and which will succeed in any fairly sunny position, developing into a shapely plant 6 or more feet high; it may be planted either in connection with other Shrubs or as a single specimen or may be trained with wonderful effect against a wall.
