    @Bluejayway .Pyracantha is a beast , pretty to look at , horrible to handle . I made the mistake of planting it as a hedge two moves ago and dug it out. I also grew a rosa rugosa hedge which was beautiful but after sustaining an infection from the spines requiring medical assistance and it suckering into the lawn i dug that up too. I now avoid anything with spikes and spines except for an autumn king holly hedge which is virtually prickle free. I am still tempted to create a rose bed but we shall see.

      Roses are lethal ! I've got a greenhouse full of cacti and I've had more injuries from roses than I've had from my cacti since I started collecting them in the 1960s. In fact I've never had any injuries from my cacti.
