Must be my lucky season, because I won a $50 target gift certificate and I also picked up my 3 gallon knock out rose from Bloomin Gardens that I won for the best crittter garden story. The critter involved a family of raccoons. Yes an entire family who created havoc.
Awesome! I picked up my first knockout roses this weekend too. I picked up four 1 gallon sized ones from Home Depot. Mine are actually the red "double" knockout roses. I got one in the ground yesterday and hope to plant the rest next week.
ReplyDeleteKris I think you will enjoy them. They are very low maintenance.

Kris--another thought. If you have a place for a climbing rose, New Dawn is a favorite. I have always found it very easy to take care of. I never had to spray it and it had many flowers. We had to take ours down because we were re-landscaping, but I really should have tried to save it.

Thanks, I will keep that in mind. I am late to the party on this knockout rose craze sweeping the nation. Down here they are planted everywhere, and I was surprised they were only invented in the year 2000. My neighbor put in a couple a few years ago and I have enjoyed watching them bloom.
