I have two plants that must be confined to their beds. They are a little too exuberant. One is a golden raspberry and one is an own-root rose. The raspberry plant's roots and crown are perennial, while the canes (stems) are biennial. A raspberry plant survives and produces fruit for many years. However, individual canes live only two growing seasons and then die.
These stems have no thorns, thankfully, but I must be careful to cut only the ones from last year and not next year's crop. Raspberries like to crawl out of this bed into the walkway.
The rose has decided to wander around a few other plants and must be extracted.
