Berberis is very effective if a little slow growing Quince very effective
nastiest by a long way is Himalayan Giant Blackberry very big thorns but be
warned they are vigorous beyond belief and once planted a royal pain to
remove- any bits you miss regenerate
( three years after removing and glyphostate treatment and they still
return)
