Hi all
I need your help with some suggestions for something to fill a gap in my border, you can see a pic of the gap here

It faces NW and the soil appears to be a sandy loam type affair and isn't particularly rich.
I'm after something that will grow to at least 4-5m and was thinking of a Hawthorn but believe they like a sunny position whereas this only really gets sun in the morning.
Any suggestions of what might work would be much appreciated
Thanks
I would be tempted to put in an 8ft post then pull the berberis that
seems to be hiding partially behind the Pyracantha across to fill the
gap, in a year or so it will really fill the gap.
You could then also plant a climbing rose to grow up the post as well.
