BTW- alternatives could & should be....
gray & silky dogwoods (I like gray the best & redosier the least)
red cedars
wild plum
shingle oak (native but invasive BUT I'm gonna guess may fit into your "fast growing" thick angle).
swamp oak
high bush cranberry
hazelnut
nanking cherry
ninebark
Osage orange
etc, etc. I'd read up on iowadnr and missouri nursery the the specific traits of the species they sell. You will absolutely find some that you really like - each has many ups & downs. So even if you were going to be NAUGHTY & do some devilish OO- you absolutely should be diversifying into other species that offer a ton more things features/benefits.

The "correct answer" would either be- unless you must have super fast growing & will 100% eradicate later- you really should avoid. There's plenty more options. OO is very tempting & a great plant- I totally get it. I would not be short side & close minded on that one thing though- take a look at diversifying with above, etc.


Skip, of these which one would be the least expensive but provide good cover for deer and possibly some browse?
