I would use Rosa pterocantha then huge thorns that look great even in winter combined with Rosa Glauca both small flowered wild types grow fairly vigorously but good for security..
http://www.apuldramro...+PTERACANTHA-rose.htm http://www.shootgarde....uk/plant/rosa-glauca Glauca is sometimes described as slightly thorny I had one and it was a nightmare to tidy up I had the scratches to prove it so ignore the 'slightly it's a lie' Also all the rugosas are thorny barstewards and flower well too |
