Hi All

I have moved some plants from our side of the gargage to back garden
today,
and quite a few of them are this plant - it looks like rose, but it is
not,
as it has fruit which looks like baby tomatoes, and the stems are very
thorny.

Sounds very much like Rosa Rubigosa. It was sold in large quantities via ads
in the daily press in the seventies as a quick informal hedging plant.
(Before the Leylandii explosion.) It is pretty indestructible and grows
almost anywhere with little attention needed.
