Thorns on Plants.

The thorns of roses and other plants
which have thorns originally grew for
the purpose of enabling the plants to
fasten themselves on to other things,
thus helping them to climb. Many
plants with thorns are permitted to
grow now in places where they can use
their thorns for climbing, but many
others with thorns are cut down by the
gardener to make the plants shapely
and to make them produce more flow
ers and less branches, but they keep
on growing their thorns just the same.
