Does that mean I still need to wait for Pieris, or should I move it now? Or
at some other stage altogether?

Watch
out for the pyracantha - tiger cubs may look awfully cuddly, but
they get a little unmanageable if not trained ....


This one is only about 2 foot tall, and quite skinny with only one stem as
yet, so the claws are still manageable :-)

Thanks!
