Great moves Max!
Cant wait to see this in the Barros "bonsai fish tank"!

Great moves!

Can anyone tell me the difference between these....
And cockspur Hawthorne?

I find this leaf shape, but can't properly ID.

Cockspur hawthorn has a thorn that is 3 inches long, pyracantha has a much shorter thorns. Pyracantha is related to cotoneaster. The difference is cotoneaster does not have thorns.

Pyracantha is also called fire thorn in the Chicago Botanic Garden bonsai collection.
