In northern Michigan the thorniest varieties are planted below windows of hunting/fishing/resort cabins and are very effective in deterring bears, humans etc. I forgot where I read of this, and now have an inquiry for using roses as a deterrant. If you learn of any very thorny varieties, I would like names. TY
