I had NO IDEA that these invasive trees sprout hellish thorns! On a recent Mid American Gardener, one guest brought pictures of his property where somebody had planted them. THE ONLY REASON that they had spread Further was bc his property bordered on a farm field and that gets tilled every...

Your Muscles WILL come back. :hugs
