there are 2 reasons they were planted:
1. They make great living fences. One of the FEW fences that can
actually keep bambi IN or OUT.
2. They one of the best fence posts.
Secondary benefit: the "oranges" are supposed to keep insects out of a
room that has oranges in it.

Yep, one of the many reasons I hate having these trees in my yard is
because of the squirrels eating the seeds from the hedge balls. They
make a huge mess shredding the outside to get at the edible part. The
worst thing about the trees is the thorns. These trees shed a lot of
small limbs and they are covered with large painful sharp thorns.
