i think the bush they're in is a scarlet firethorn and when i went on wiki to check if that's right, the polish wiki said the berries have an unpleasant taste and are mildly toxic, meanwhile the english wiki said they're inedible when raw but can be cooked into jam etc.

Our neighbourhood has a lot of "Himalayan firethorn" (Pyracantha). Phone pics:
- Different colour bushes by main road.
- Bright red, back garden, testing new phone (returned due to screen flicker).

Autumn vibes with the scarlet firethorn

Garden cheer to keep birds happy.
Scarlet firethorn (Pyracantha coccinea) with red and orange berries has fruit that is bitter and astringent, but delicious when cooked to make jellies, jams, sauces and marmalade.

It looks a bit like the scarlet firethorn/pyracantha coccinea so I worried when I read that yours is an invasive species.

(I’ve been trying to grow a firethorn in my garden for some years now, but somehow it keeps getting overgrown…)

saw a great tit (the kind of bird) today. it landed on the bush outside of our window (which i think is a scarlet firethorn but i could be wrong) and ate some berries off of it. effervescent, but like, unironically

Another week, another selection of #TheSmallThings #SpreadingJoy photos from me; this time I bring the start of the autumnal colours from my garden and the woods behind my house.

September comes and you see that August's ripening fruits were autumn's first blush all along...

I absolutely love these rosa glauca hips in my garden 😍 #TinyJoys

Have been stabbed in the finger by a thorn from something called Scarlet Firethorn.

To be totally fair, if I was cut by a sword with that name I would probably wear that scar with pride.

Does hurt like a mothe-

(🧵3/11) Pyracantha coccinea ‘Scarlet Firethorn’ as Anora

The pyracantha (firethorn) shrubs in my #biodiversity hedge provide warm splashes of colour in winter, even in the snow. They're very suitable for the climate here in #Bulgaria, and birds like the berries.
Do you have pyracantha in your garden? If yes, may we see a pic?

before buying anymore groceries, eat all the food you have. if you have to supplement with fresh produce, ok, but clear the pantry before stocking up again.

The firethorn (pyracantha) shrubs in my garden (American English: in my yard) provide intense winter colours. Their orange and scarlet berries glow like lanterns.

The berries, though inedible for humans, are a treat for some wild birds.
