Is it normal for a plum tree to have these mean spikes on the branches? The branch here is 20mm diameter and the long spikes are just over 100mm long. They are very rigid and nasty to handle.

I’ve seen spikes on a lemon tree but never this before. Is this common?

Good thing wind is invisible

Absolutely no filters or adjustments were made to this image. This is exactly what it was.

Might get this in summer too but can’t be arsed getting up that early lol

The garden trellis helps frame the shot, I hope
