The thorns of these roses in the garden looks like are made of silver. They look like medieval weapons. There were other reds, green...but these ones called my attention.

These thorns are from the top of the Golden Barrel Cactus from Mexico also known as Mother- In - Laws Cushion.

Taken at the Arid Garden, Melbourne Botanical Gardens.

Although commonly cultivated, it is rare and critically endangered in the wild.

Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and faves...it is always appreciated.

The Barberries in my garden are keeping their color unusually late this year. I love them for their color and bright, red, berries, but respect them for their thorns!

Some of the most beautiful things worth having in your life come wrapped in thorns

Does anyone know what berries these are? I know not hawthorn berries. This one has thorn in it.

From a palm tree that produces small coconut like fruit. The trunk and fronds are covered with these thorns. They are up to six inches long and extremely sharp. The theme "tip" for today's Looking Close on Friday group inspired this photo.

Macro Mondays - Sharp

I nearly forgot it was Monday today ... been watching the Queen's funeral on the telly ... so it was a quick out into the garden in search of a bramble and its sharp thorns.

We have nearly completed our journey and are almost back home. These thorny little plants were just minding their own business at the side of the road on the Plains of Camdeboo in the Karoo.
