Double Knockout Roses (red & coral) – 3 Gallon

Care in planting Double Knock Outs will make the difference in a shrub that simply survives or thrives. Your roses will arrive healthy, with a well-developed root system. Follow these planting guidelines to get your shrubs off to a good start in your garden:

Double Knock Out Roses thrive in USDA plant hardiness zones 5 through 9. (If you’re planting your shrubs in containers, this places their roots above ground level where they will not be insulated by the surrounding soil, so they’ll overwinter in their pots to Zone 6.) A full-sun location (at least 6, but preferably 8 hours of sun each day) promotes fuller foliage growth and more flowers. Double Knock Out Roses aren’t too fussy about the type of soil they grow in, but they do need a well-draining site. If the roots sit in soggy soil, they may rot. Before excavating planting holes, have a locate service mark the ground above any underground utility lines so you don’t sever them when you dig.
