It’s pretty crazy how quickly they grow back though! At my old place in Epping, there was a rose bush right near the front door. One year I trimmed it back, as it was getting all tentacle-y and big. Then boom, it grew back bigger and stronger than ever, way more flowers, leaves and thorns. It was nuts!
There was one awful scraggly one in a stupid location at an old sharehouse that I foolishly tried to pull out (failed) and then mow over several times, both when I first lived there ten years ago and then more recently about 4-5 years ago.

I’m pretty sure the bastard is still alive.
