Are all orange pyracantha trees the same?

My neighbour has one of these but I doubt they know exactly what type it is. It may precede their arrival. To me, it's as if it's a lilac tree - you think there's one type but then you find out there are loads and it sows confusion into the mix.

If I order one, will it look like this? Are they in fact generic? The ones for sale on line look more orange and not so nice. Or should I stick to buying one at a local garden centre if they have one in, so I can check it's what I want, rather than risking it on line?

Pyracantha come with yellow, orange or red berries. There are different named varieties. So if you’re buying online, it would be sensible to buy from somewhere that offers a selection of named varieties rather than somewhere which just offers “Pyracantha, orange”

While they have berries on them I'd go to a garden centre now, take a look at their pyracanthas, and make a note of the named varieties of the ones you like.

An orange one that I know of is 'Teton'.
