Hi All.

I hope the group can help me, for reasons not worth bothering you
with, I'm interested in finding the most blood hungry thorny plant
that will grow fast and vigorously in the UK or even better a range of
types I've an area of deep shade and another exposed in full
sun.

To be clear I don't want a pussy like Pyracantha or Hawthorn I want
"Grow Your Own Razor Wire!!", Little Shop of Horrors.

Any specialist sites I might ask on?

Exotics that I may be able to get hold of? They would need to stand up
to the rigours of Merseyside, grow fast and vigorously




I suggest hedgehog holly for both places, tough as old boots. Or gorse,
which produces loads of hayfever triggering flowers in spring, which is good
for anti asbo youths. It's hard to act like a wee hard man in front of the
other neds when your eyes are streaming, nose gushing mucus and keep
sneezing. With the increase in childhood allergies I see pollen producing
plants as an up and coming marketing point.
