A cooler, cloudy morning so I decided to attack the bamboo again. Merrily digging I came across this root.
It doesn't look like a bamboo root. On the other hand it doesn't look like a rose root either. For a start, this rose is only a couple of years old; it seems unlikely that it would have grown such a huge root in that time. Digging down, the root appears to go underneath the rose so I think rather than try to find its beginning or end, and disturb the rose, I'll just cut it off near the base.
And hope it isn't a creature from the depths of the earth that was planning on taking over the world. I wouldn't want to enrage something like that.

Maybe you cut it off and defeat it! Good luck!
Good thinking!
It’s good to get to the root of our problems.
I've lopped off random roots before with no ill effects.
Roots travel everywhere. It probably belongs to a far-away tree!
If all the power is suddenly cut from your neighborhood, just delete this blogpost.
Sometimes it's hard to figure out where those roots come fromo
