Despite wearing two layers of China-made cloth gloves, these thorns managed to penetrate and hurt my fingers when I was cutting and handling the plant.
There are plenty of these fearful plants in my farm, especially the new area. Special precautions have to observe when cutting and handling these plants. Direct contact is not recommended as the thorns are spread all over the stems. Besides, very fine thread lined with thorns grow from end of the stems hang across your way and if you do not see it, you will have a line of wound across your face. Therefore, you must wear a big grass hat to prevent such fine thorny threads hurting your face.
