Palustris · June 13, 2007, 21:14:27

Yes and, yes. And since we get dozens of them I pull them out so no idea how long it takes. I loathe roses!

I thought a briar type rose usually had 7 leaves compared to the cultivated type having only 5, except on the suckers?

Hello
or
It look's like a dog rose or a sweet briar i would say properly a dog rose (Rosa canina).

If it's a dog rose they have a lovely pink flower they grow about 6ft x 4ft (1.8m x 1.2m).

thanks, broguesblue, it's only about 8" tall yet so we'll wait a while to see if it flowers ;D

It might flower late this year or next year for sure.
