Hey was wondering if anyone could ID this stump i dug from a garden bed, it has been cut back numerous times and always comes back with a vengeance, i was thinking prunus family because it has some long gnarly thorns but really not sure
Cheers Beau
Unkillable stump ID?

Re: Unkillable stump ID?
looks like some sort of plum to me too but without flowers and fruit it will be pretty hard to ID further.

Re: Unkillable stump ID?
Thanks guys, I have seen this grow wild a couple times and can't recall it flowering, just lots of green foliage and thorns, although it was hacked back regularly so I guess wouldn't produce flowers on new growth?
