A prebonsai is a small tree with specific features, that with a little work and some care can become a beautiful bonsai. The prebonsai are grown from seedlings to get a good nebari, which is the base of the trunk, fine roots near the trunk, and several design possibilities. This prebonsai line will allow you to model and design the bonsai in the style you want or that the tree indicates.

Pyracantha coccinea. Prebonsai 24 years. Firethorn. It is a typical Mediterranean tree that lives better outdoors because it needs sun and cold to produce fruits. Evergreen. Much appreciated for its white flowers in spring and its colourful fruits in autumn.
Location: It can be placed outdoors throughout the year and exposed to full sun during flowering. In summer, it can be placed in semi-shade. Resists cold, but must be protected from frost.
Watering: Needs enough moisture. It is recommended not to wet the flowers when watering.
Curiosities: Due to its strong spines, Pyracantha has been used as an impenetrable hedge. We can find Pyracanthas planted in the median strips of the roads, because if a car hits them, it stops without crossing to the other side.
Dimensions in centimetres approx. (width x depth x height): 58 x 50 x 85
