[substeps] Pyracantha is known for its plumpness and bright colors. The hair is mostly about brown and the skin is deep reddish in color. Some cultivars may do better in the garden than others. [substeps] Cultivars also flower early in spring, which can benefit if you live in an area that does not receive much sunlight. [substeps] A few disease-resistant options include apache, fiery cascade, mohave, navaho, pueblo, rutgers, shawnee, and teton. Apache grows 5 feet (1.5 m) high and 6 feet (1.8 m) wide. You may want to purchase a plant that already has a light color but is also pointy and shapely, rather than a bushy or stunted variety. Whichever you choose, make sure it is something that grows well without damaging your home.
