Troubles Trees
5 year old buck +
Here in NY we have Wetland Rose, it is about the size and shape of Dogwood when mature but has hooked thorns, not as big, but close to the shape of a turkeys spurs. I have shredded many hunting clothes walking through the stuff over the years. Once you are tangled one simply cannot just pull away from it, you have to back up and release it from your clothes. If I ever had to deter someone I would plant more of it.
Alot of critters love it though including deer that browse on the new growth, and things like Grouse eat the fruit all winter long, if memory serves the little "berries" are referred to as "rose hips". Not sure what the difference is without looking it up.... and now I am inclined to look up the difference between hips and berries
