Right, Marge. Thorns in the extreme. Kinda strange to grow a plant

for

Thorns in the extreme, indeed!  Well, not so strange.  There's at
least one rose I'd like to grow for its thorns - can't remember the
name, but they are huge, red and translucent...much showier than the
flowers:-)

Seems to me that if it grew large enough and thickly enough
and rigidly enough (lotsa 'nuffs) it would make a good deer
fence ?
