Rosa 'Knock Out'

Knock Out Rose

Knock Out is the original Radrazz shrub rose. Cherry-red to vivid pink flowers stand above dark, purple-tinged green leaves. The bushy plant can form a flowering hedge or anchor a mixed border. It tolerates drought once established and has resistance to black spot.

Give it full sun and water regularly while it establishes. Flowers repeat from spring to frost; deadheading is optional.
