kinda, but in that way that you don't really notice if you get what I mean

Ah. One I had at an old rental was pretty frecking dangerous, spines bigger than fruit

[โ€“] Taleya@aussie.zone 2 points 3 days ago

oh this one is spiny, but it''s the kind you don't notice when you're picking fruit.

You sure as fuck notice the little bastards when cleaning up pruned branches though. They're everywhere and HUGE

Wonderful. Reminds me of my grandma's lemon tree before her neighbour reduced it to a stump.
