In Tollcross Park, there are fabulous extensive rose beds. Visiting for a winter parkrun, I saw that the bushes had been very, very hard pruned. In bloom tripadvisor.co.uk Pruned tripadvisor.co.uk Sun is out today, and the crocuses are smiling I also noticed that on one of the "proper" raspberry canes, the leaves looked ready to unfurl. Then I saw that on a couple of scrappy wild shoots, the leaves were actually out
