Sorry, sold out for 2008.

The Double Knock Out® Rose is a new, carefree landscape rose. Its cherry red blossoms attract attention all summer. Blossoms are about 3-inches wide, with a double form. The blossoms fall off cleanly, so you don't have to remove old blossoms. The foliage is a dark green that turns a dark reddish-green in the fall. The foliage is very healthy with resistance to blackspot and powdery mildew, so you can enjoy your rose! The canes on this rose are winter hardy to the crown in northern Zone 4 and do best with a covering over the crown to ensure winter survival in very cold climates.

What you'll receive: Plants are grade #1 own-root plants, and shipped bareroot (no soil or pot) and dormant (no foliage). Learn more about our plants.

Shipping: 1-4 plants=$11.00; add $1.50 for each additional plant over 4 plants. Shipped UPS Ground in spring from early April through mid May.

[Catalog #SR61 - Introduced in 2004]

How to Grow

What's a "bareroot" plant?

Photo of bareroot plant"Bareroot" is a term that describes how a plant is shipped to you. A bareroot plant is not in a pot, and is usually dormant (not actively growing). See the photo to the right that shows what a bareroot rose looks like. The bareroot plants that we ship to you were harvested in the fall and placed in cold storage over the winter to keep them dormant. In the spring, we ship the bareroot plants to our customers, from early April through mid May.

Bareroot plants are easy to grow. We include planting instructions with your order. When you receive your plant, take it out of the packing material and place it in a bucket of water so that the roots are completely covered. Let the roots soak for 4 to 24 hours, then plant it in your garden. Full planting instructions with photos are available on our Planting Roses page.
