I have never had roses and thought this would be perfect for a beginner. It has about 12 buds on it ready to open up. I am so excited! It looks so pretty even though it only has about 5 blooms that are actually open on it right now, but when it gets full, I'll take some pics and post it on here. I plan on getting some more this weekend and planting them this weekend. Anybody else have these roses and what do you think of them? Quote \| Reply \| Report

I potted the first year and it done good but this year I planted it in the ground and it is full of blooms. Mine is red and I want a pink one to. It has been blooming since late April.

I also saw some in a lighter blush color that was really nice..too many roses too little time for planting! Quote \| Reply \| Report

Found it here at this link: http://www.carrollgardens.com/knockout-rose.asp This site says hardy in zones 4-9 http://www.springvalleyroses.com/catalog/knocko ut.html trudy Quote \| Reply \| Report

As mentioned in an earlier post we have had ours since it was introduced ( 2000 I believe). http://pic18.picturetrail.com/VOL879/4315120/10 592532/156612779.jpg http://pic18.picturetrail.com/VOL879/4315120/10 592532/156610604.jpg http://pic18.picturetrail.com/VOL879/4315120/10 592532/156609692.jpg Quote \| Reply \| Report
