User's notes

The trunk divides into 2 at height 1m. The colour of the bark is light brown. It's deciduous. Its distinguishing feature are its 3cm long thorns, all over it's stems and trunk. It's dangerous. I's like to know how tall it's going to get and if I should remove it. I suspect that this website may not want to waste time on what I think is an exotic.
