First, apologies to Frilly for hijacking her thread!!
It's funny how off-topic we can get; I apologize for my part of it.
I think the thorny approach is problematic;
I suspect it will effectively keep deer away, but you'll have to keep away also.
I have ponciris trifoliate flying dragon (pictured),
which is an amazingly thorny thing; really vicious thorns.
But it certainly is inpenetrable by beast or man.
And Muddy, I have been leery of those mountain mints because of their rambunctious reputation.
But maybe I'll try one. They otherwise sound cool.
