Popular series of landscape roses, renowned for their disease resistance. We're late to the party, but ordered a 'Pink Knockout' earlier this year along with a couple of floribunda roses (I had a rose envy complex, having never grown roses worth looking at). For some reason, the mail order company messed up and sent the pink one way late. Then they forgot they sent it, ran out of the pink one, and sent a 'Double Knockout' "replacement". I planted both (the first came as a large bare-root plant, the second as a small potted plant) and will report on their progress in years to come. The photo of the 'Double Knockout' rose at right was taken soon after it was planted, with a single flower.
