Pyracantha


Pyracantha

Tógann lonna dubha agus dreoilíní a neadacha laistigh de chosaint deilgneach an tom pyracantha áit a bhíonn siad slán ó ionsaithe na snaganna breaca; bíonn na beacha agus na féileacáin ag tarraingt ar a mbláthanna áille bána i Mí na Bealtaine agus bíonn a gcaora mar bhia sa bhfómhar ag smólaigh de gach chineál. Tá an planda seo ar cheann de na plandaí is fearr ó thaobh an fhiadhúlra de i ngairdíní uirbeacha.

Pyracantha

Blackbirds and wrens nest within the thorny confines of the pyracantha shrub, safe from marauding magpies; bees and butterflies visit its magnificent white flowers in May; and its berries in autumn provide food for the thrush family. An allround winner for wildlife in urban gardens.
