Chinese wolfberry

As a crop with very high economic value, I believe many people will be familiar with it. After all, it is very expensive. And it can adapt to the dry and cold environment well, and is generally more suitable for breeding in alkaline soil.

So if you want to plant, you need to see whether the orchard meets such conditions. It has many spikes. When planting, you can plant several lines, so that the defense effect can be better. It usually thrives after three years.

Huajiaoshu

Zanthoxylum bungeanum is also a very tall tree, which can grow to 3-7 meters around the orchard. Moreover, there are very sharp thorns on it, even distributed several times on the branches, which can play a very good preventive role.

Generally speaking, it is very sensitive to water. Too much water will kill it. Therefore, we should also pay attention when planting, and we can also collect seeds and sell them in autumn.

bulbous cactus

As a common shrub, you can know from its name that it has many thorns.

There are some spikes on the trunk and fruit, which can avoid pedestrians. At the same time, it is highly adaptable to the environment, even in saline-alkali land.

Generally, it can be planted in high mountains and valleys. It can be planted in 65438+February, with a general distance of 1- 1.5m, and can be harvested in September of the following year. Fruit is expensive and nutritious.

Ancient trees

Ilex cornuta is also known as cat thorn, tiger thorn, octagonal thorn, bird never sleeps, dog bone thorn, cat fragrance, mouse tree and so on. Its leaves are unique, hard and full of thorns.

When I was a child, I often picked this kind of leaves carefully to play with. Children in rural areas, any exotic flowers and trees can be playthings. It hurts to be stabbed by this kind of thorn, so everyone is used to avoiding it.

Many farmers have been stabbed by Ilex cornuta, and the pain is very sour, just like acupuncture. Rural people think it is of no practical use, so they will cut it off when they see it, or they will be in trouble if they accidentally hurt others.

erythrina indica

Erythrina's name is "Erythrina" in our hometown, and it is also called "drum nail thorn" in rural areas. Why do they all have thorns?

The main reason is that its trunk is covered with thorns. If you accidentally hit Erythrina, you will be stabbed by its spikes, so many farmers take a detour when they see these trees.

Erythrina is rich in resources in the north of China, but less distributed in the south, so Erythrina has strong adaptability to the growing environment.

It likes to grow in sunshine and humid environment, and can be cold-resistant, weak acid or neutral soil. People who grew up in the north should have seen it, and Erythrina is also a common tree in rural areas.

Sorbus spinosa

In rural areas, there is a very common tree called catalpa bungeana. Seeing this kind of tree, farmers are in trouble. Because this tree is full of thorns, it is easy to be scratched by its sharp thorns. However, they still choose to cut down these trees because they are more common.

Because of his strong adaptability and low requirements for the environment, he can be seen everywhere. This plant likes plenty of sunshine and wet places.

Trilobulated

Speaking of oranges, friends born in rural areas are no strangers. I believe I was scratched by the thorn of this tree when I was a child. Oranges are also called smelly oranges and orange plums.

Grapefruit is a deciduous shrub and a common plant in rural wasteland and roadside. In ancient times, people used oranges to guard against theft. Thieves and wolves often appeared at that time.

Grapefruit was covered with thorns, which was the most commonly used anti-theft plant at that time and was usually planted around the house.
