Park Seed: Rose Double Knock Out - A red hybrid Tea Rose with double blooms
A recommendation by ASewell
ASewell's recommendation
First to recommend
If they don't run out, I plan to border portions of my house with this hardy rose variety. The blooms are fire-engine red and 2 1/2 inches wide. They bloom practically non-stop from early summer until frost. Most are double or semi-double and have a petal count from 18 to 25.
It works fine as a low hedge in sunny to partly sunny areas of the garden. When is ideal for me with my mixed-sun location.
The other reason I'm interested in this rose is its proported resistance to blackspot. Which is a particular problem disease when growing roses.
Other highlights of this 3 x 3 foot shrub are that it is crown-hardy to 20 degrees F, drought, heat, and humidity-resistant. In addition to being resistant against blackspot, it's also resistant to such pests as the Japanese beetle, leafhopper and rose midge. (via parkseed.com)
