They're growing mostly in a fairly shady area, competing with blackberries and other similar plants. At least they don't grow very fast, so cutting them and keeping them back should be relatively easy.

Weed Roses
It appears I have some multiflora rose, aka weeds, growing here and there... I have some upright canes but mostly ones that snake along the ground. The leaves and thorns make it obvious that they're roses; this is the first year that I have seen any blooms.
They're fragrant enough, but their invasive properties (and susceptibility to rose rosette disease) render them undesirable. I'm going to be more aggressive about dealing with them.
