Description

Although it has nice red flowers that look kinda cute, this Crown of Thorns growing in the yard has got to go. The ideal growing conditions here can make this plant into a monster in no time. I thought I would get a shot of it before Mr. Chainsaw has lunch. Thanks for all your kind comments on my previous posts...Aloha Ya'll!

Such a contrast of unusually beautiful flowers with those horrible thorns! I understand how sometimes pretty things have to go - just pulled up a bunch of poppies in my yard that were overgrowing the path. Have fun with Mr. Chainsaw :)

The flowers are truly beautiful - but I can understand that you want to get rid of it, those thorns look pretty wicked. Excellent shot!
