�e Conard-Pyle Co./Star® Roses is proud to have introduced all seven members of �e Knock Out® Family of Roses.

Rose Breeder, Bill Radler, has revolutionized the way we think of roses. With the creation of �e Knock Out® Rose, many say that he single-handedly brought rose genetics from the 20th Century into the 21st Century. �e Knock Out® Rose, Radler’s �rst commercial success and a 2000 AARS winner, has broken all records for sales of a new rose. Today �e Knock Out® Rose is the most widely sold rose in North America.

�e Knock Out® Family of Roses are easy to grow and do not require special care. �ey are the most disease resistant rose on the market. �ey have stunning �ower power with a generous bloom cycle (about every 5-6 weeks) that will continue until the �rst hard frost. All of the Knock Out® Roses are self-cleaning so there is no need to deadhead.

�e Knock Out® Family of Roses are winter hardy to USDA Zone 5 and heat tolerant throughout the entire U.S. �ey thrive in almost every area of the country. In the coldest regions, they will need winter protection.

�e Knock Out® Family of Roses can �t into any landscape. Plant them individually among shrubs, annuals and perennials in mixed beds and borders. Plant them in large groups to create a colorful hedge. Plant them along a foundation to provide a bright border.

HOW TO PLANT A BAREROOT KNOCK OUT® ROSE

Step 1: Use the right toolsFor this job, you will need the following tools: a shovel (or spade), pruning sheers, and a wheelbarrow (optional).

Step 2: Pick an appropriate spot to plantYour rose bush will need at least 6 hours of sun each day, so choose a sunny spot to plant.

Step 3: Clean up bushBecause there may have been some damage to your bareroot rose while it was being shipped clip off some twigs and some tops of the canes, as well as some ends of roots so that new roots can grow.

Step 4: Dig hole big enough for plantDig a hole that is wide enough and deep enough for the roots of your bareroot rose. Pile some dirt back in the hole to create a cone shape for the roots to rest on and spread the roots over this mound.

Step 5: Cover roots with soilCover the roots of your bareroot rose with soil. For a grafted rose, you want the bud union to be right around soil level, but know that this does vary by zone.

Step 6: Water the rootsGive your bareroot rose a large drink of water to settle the soil so that there is no air left around the roots.

Step 7: Mound soil around canesMound soil on top of the canes to protect the rose from drying out. When the shoots start to grow, pull the soil away from the plant so that rose bush is back at the proper level.

HOW TO PRUNE A KNOCK OUT® ROSE

Knock Out®Your guide to Knock Out® care and inspiration!

WATCH NOW!

Grab your h edge trimm ers and gard en gloves and follow th ese steps to succesfu lly pru ne your Knock Out®

Pruning a Knock Out®Rose is very simple. Click above to watch a video that shows you how and when to prune.

Step 1. When do I prune my rose bush?Prune your rose bush in early spring, never in the fall and never in the winter. Check your rose bush from time to time as spring moves along and when you start to see new growth coming out of the canes on your rose bush, that’s a good sign that it is time to prune.

Step 2. Use proper toolsYou will need a few basic tools when the time comes to prune your roses: gloves, because of the thorns on your rose bush. Lopping sheers, for some of the heavier canes that are going to be difficult to cut with some of the smaller sheers. Small hand sheers, for some of the finer work, and a pair of hedge trimmers to get the job done quickly.

Step 3. Determine how high you want to pruneDetermining where you’ll prune depends on how high you want your rose bush to grow. Your rose bush will usually triple in size after pruning so cutting it back to about 12” will leave it at 3’ by the end of the season.
