Knock Out Roses

 Our Knock Out Roses are just stunning! Take a look at these beautifies:

Knock outs love the sun and like to get 6 to 8 hours of sunlight a day. 

Last Mother's Day, my husband bought me two more Red Double Knock Out Rose bushes. I grouped these two with another one to make a cluster of three red Knock Outs. These three are planted along out front sidewalk.

Knock Outs bloom longer than any other flowering shrub. Plus they bloom more often. They are known for their: 

Flower Power!

They are considered low maintenance but there are a few tips to growing them: lots of sun; good drainage; a healthy dose of quality food in the spring; prune any blackening stems; and regular watering.

Take a look at these buds getting ready to open! Knock Outs bring instant success to your garden. They were introduced a generation ago. They are so easy to grow and are disease resistant.

There is a family of  Knock Outs and Double Knock Outs in several colors.

Now a Petite Knock Out is available. This one only grows to about 18 inches. Source of image.

Watch for my next post on my new Double Knock Outs just planted in another exciting color! Can you guess what color? 

Special Note: I have sprayed my roses with Triple Action spray because you may have noticed some small holes in the leaves of my pics. These holes are caused by the Rose Sawfly Worm. This worm is a tiny green worm that feeds on the  underneath side of the leaves.
