Nan, did your Rugosa Rose start out as one plant? Ours did and it is almost as big as yours is. I need to hack it back or take some out. I dread the job because it is so thorny.
Lisa, I think we put in three or four plants, and it has created that big hedge. It goes down behind as well. A couple years ago, Tom cut it all down in the fall, and it came back beautifully. I believe he used the brush saw.
I'll answer your comments as soon as I possibly can. Please do come back if you've asked a question. Also, you may comment on any post, no matter how old, and I will see it.
I am so happy to have found your blog! I will enjoy visiting it.
