I DO grow Knockout roses - a couple of varieties. My thoughts - they’re a heckuva lot of bang for my buck. I think they get a bad rap for being “landscape roses”. However - they’re vigorousness and toughness can’t be denied. There’s a place for specialty roses and landscape roses; everyone isn’t a rose gardener. 💁🏻♀️ Sorry for the long comment - enjoyed the video so much! Thanks for taking us along! ❤ xo
@Marie-gl4yg hello, In the video, I explained that deadheading is not necessary. I prune each year for health and vitality of the shrub. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you 🌱
At the end of last season, I decided to give roses a go, again. The last roses I had ended up succumbing to rose rosette. Anyway, last year, I purchased an end of season Knock Out Rose from Home Depot. The funny thing is even though I had roses before and my mother loved and always had a rose bushes, I never knew that you needed to prune / cut them back until recently. I did my cutting back / pruning at the end of February. I'm praying that they do well this time.
lol, me neither, until I became a gardener 🤣 we call them "enthusiasts". I can be an enthusiast about some things (paper towels and toilet paper lol), but not roses. I want the ones that don't give me trouble, and look beautiful with minimal fuss.
My hubby and I were just researching Knockout Roses today! My sis had recommended them to us. BTW you are an excellent teacher, I can't wait to add some knockouts to my garden🌺🌺🌺
Hi Steph! You always look so adorable in your apron. Thank you for getting in close tobshow the cuts you make and what you prune out. It was very helpful. Now i feel more confident about pruning my shrub roses that were here years ago when we bought this house.
I have one knockout rose shrub it lives in a pot at the front walkway and does great. I have it for the same reasons you do English roses don’t do very well for me in the ground they are super fussy, I gave up last year. I replaced all my English roses with knockouts and the proven winners oh so easy double red roses. I have much better luck with landscape type roses and the flower power is worth its weight in gold!! ❤
@@HookedandRooted you should try some of the proven winners oh so easy roses they are really beautiful and they are adding new colors I believe this year or they already added them last year I can’t remember. ❤️
I have 7 Knockouts, 7 Drift Roses. I do sprinkle Bayer BioAdvanced All-In-One Rose care in Spring & mid summer. I believe it helps with the growth. It isn’t organic if one does all organic care. I’ve read about the dreaded Rose Rosette disease….🙏🏻I never have that.
Great tutorial, Steph. I need to get busy taking care of this at one of my client’s homes. Your vids are succinct and thorough. Thank you! Continued blessings…
You always do such a great job of delivering clear and concise information. I have not been able to prune my roses yet because it has not stopped raining here except for last weekend which was a holiday so I had company and was unable to get in the garden. My knockouts do get black spot etc and so far my David Austins have done just fine...I hope I didn't just jinx it LOL. Great video Steph, Happy Spring:)
Hi Carol! Ahh yes, last weekend was also beautiful for us down here, but we hosted Easter, so we couldn't do any work outside. Hopefully the rain stays away this weekend. So glad your DA's are doing well. The only DA I have that does ok for me is the "Olivia Rose Austin"...all the others are in my rose ICU trying to be nursed back to health before they get a spot in the garden again. Thank you so much for watching Carol 💚
Hi, Steph! Thank you for this video on pruning knockouts! I love mine (3 years old now) and couldn't find a good video on how to prune them. Thank you!
I have one knock out rose that I got on clearance at Lowe’s last spring and it is a beautiful bloomer!!! I have no time for Roses that require special care or upkeep. Knockout is the way to go!
I'm feeling that way these days also. I still appreciate a beautiful rose, but they have given me such a hard time over the years. But my knockouts perform well for me.
Hi Steph. Great video, as always. I too am a knockout rose lover. I started out a few years ago with just 2 bushes, I now have 8 and plan on getting a few more soon. You are correct, they are hardy and bloom from spring to autumn, they really are winners for sure. Thanks for sharing.
Great video Steph! Finally someone commends the Knockout Rose. I think they are wonderful as well and so easy. I struggle with the English roses too but am looking into Kordes roses that are better suited to deal with our heat and humidity in NC.
Hi Steph. My grandsons brought me one, one Mother’s Day, in pink 🩷 I’ll be pruning my roses on Saturday, weather permitting. They really are no fuss and pretty!
Hi Steph, I guess you could call me a recovering rose snob who formerly wouldn't allow a rose in my yard that wasn't grown on it's own roots. Too many years of waiting for the promise of "continual blooms" to actually happen and I decided to try other options. Heirloom, David Austin, Kordes, Bucks, Grafted, landscape, Knock Out etc. Now I like them all, this spring I bought a box of two grafted bare root at Costco for 16.99 called New Life, I can't wait to see what they do this summer. Very good tutorial on the cutting back process!
I have Peachy, and Double Pink Knockout roses. They are truly no-fuss. A strip mall in my town has a hedge of Peachy Knockouts, and they are gorgeous ❤ I do a double take every time I pass by😊. By the way, I watched your video about Thrifts and I ran out to Home Depot the same day and snatched up a few of them. They performed really well in my garden. ☺️
I have 2x double knockout roses at our home and they came with the house and I’ve never known how to take care of them! This is the perfect video! Thanks Steph!! Happy spring gardening 💐
Much easier than I thought it would be, your presentation was really well done and easy to follow. I planted five of these in my garden and they’re so beautiful. My wife is loving my skills, but if she only knew about my youtube green thumb resources. 🤭
Thanks for this video, Steph. I grew knockout roses for about five years. They were very prolific and were never affected by any pests. My only problem was they were red roses and did not coordinate with my garden color scheme. I felt terrible removing them because they were in the perfect spot but just could not live with the color. This is one of my many garden fails in thirty years of gardening. Anxiously awaiting your next video!
Very helpful for a total novice such as myself. Thank you! I wanted to ask is it possible to grow these roses and the beautiful spirea(?) in pots? Also, what about grasshoppers? I live in a big city, so I have no problems with deer and rabbits, but grasshoppers are a huge problem. Any advice for combatting grasshoppers? Thank you!!
Hi! Great video! I planted my first Knock Out Rose (which I thought would have red flowers but they're sort of a peach color) many years ago, but it hasn't grown well at all. I realized, just this year, that it wasn't getting enough sun at all. It's planted next to a Rose of Sharon that has covered the poor thing's light exposure. I need to move the Knock out Rose by early Sept. because we're adding on a sun room then and the wall will be going right where the bush currently is. I'm in zone 5, so I wondered if you might have suggestions for how to move her so she doesn't go into shock-I know it's not a great time to transplant. Thanks so much!
Hi Steph! That spirea is so gorgeous! I need to get my hands on one of those. Oh my your roses look like they are beauties! Starting at about 5:50 it looks like you have black spot. All those black spots on the rose canes on the left hand side of the screen. I’m no expert but I think those canes need to be removed so it doesn’t spread. Your bushes look full and happy so hopefully it’s not a big problem. Thanks for the video. I really enjoy watching you in your garden ❤
I also love my knockout rose bush, I've had it for years. I never use fertilizer on any of my roses anymore. They would burn and then die from the fertilizer.
Love the candy corn spirea! I’m thinking of getting one . Thanks for showing how they look in different times. ; Do you think the rose tone is better for hydrangeas to get better blooms than holly tone and how often do you fertilize the hydrangeas
Rabbits and their bunnies are eating all mine down to the root. I thought the thorns would deter them but was wrong. I’ve been noticing Japanese Beatles, and another pest causing holes all over their leaves.
Hi Steph, I have 2 red knockout roses I too have lots of deer pressure & I use the liquid fence. Do the deer only eat the roses or also the foliage. Love your videos, their always informative & entertaining
Hi Margie! I find the lop off the blooms. They leave the foliage alone, unless it came off with the bloom. They make a very blunt cut so its easy to tell it was them. I have to spray them fairy regularly since we have SO MANY deer sadly. Thank you so much for your kind words about my videos, and for watching 💚
Hi Steph 😊 What is the complete name of the spirea? I rewatched a few times & could not catch it. As always, I enjoy your content. I’ve learned so much from you!
Hello, I’m new to your channel and really enjoy your content..such a wealth of knowledge. I have knock out roses and love them. However, black spot has infected them. Actually, the bed that they are in, last year, nothing did well. Fungus of all sorts hit all my plants. I think mulch and plastic were the culprit. I removed the plastic, but left the mulch and pulled the mulch away from the plants, thinking this would fix everything, but I am seeing black spot on the stems of my roses. Does this mean that the rose is hopeless? I would greatly appreciate your input if you have any
Hi Carol! Thank you so much for your kind words. As for the black spot, although its not something I've dealt with yet on my knockout roses, I do recall Laura @gardensanity posting a video about this. Black spot can be treated, so don't lose hope. Just takes a little work. Here's are the videos: th-cam.com/video/V_HfuH7uG8I/w-d-xo.htmlsi=TS0s_e2bYzxAZI7J th-cam.com/video/a-R5fNzWMok/w-d-xo.htmlsi=nNNf7AZDXipO3Vra
Could I prune my roses now? I’m on your same zone. My roses have not bloomed yet but there are a lot of leaves. It is already taller than 5 feet and I would like to bring it down a little bit. Would that be okay?
I bought a knockout rose and she was doing fantastic, so much color I went back and got three more. They looked amazing! for about two or three weeks and now nothing. No buds and no indications of more to come. What would you recommend I do? (They’re planted in good soil and mulched and fertilized) 😢
Hi Bonnie, They do a big flush of blooms in June, then take a few weeks to "reload". They will start again soon. No need to do anything. They usually bloom through your first hard frost. Mine just finished up their first big flush. Now I'm waiting on the next set of blooms.
I love your Roo Apron! Just ordered one from your link below. Thank you! You read my mind about the pretty little red shrub. I love spirea. They are such a great shrub. I have Drift peach roses and they bloom for me even in part sun. I just added At Last roses from Proven Winners. I'll have to try Knock Out roses in my new full sun area.
Hi Carla! Oh yay. I hope you love it. I find myself reaching for aprons alot. Both in the kitchen, and in the garden (different ones of course 🤣). I'm a messy cook and gardener, so the aprons help me from being a bigger mess when I'm done with my chores. Oh the peach drift roses are lovely! Glad to hear it does well for you in part sun🌱
@@HookedandRooted You never look messy when you are gardening! I received it yesterday and since it's too wet to work in the garden, I tried a cat in the pouch. He's a chonk so it is well made! 😸
I don't have knockout roses, but I have a rose that was from a cutting that my mom started, which has grown so nicely, and this year it has blooms on it. The rose is about 2 years old. I love roses, I grew up with my mom, having all varieties of roses. I really love plants which came from my mom, she was a gardner and growing up I remember everyday she would be outside working on the garden. I would ask her what are these plants, and how big will they get. Mama taught me a lot about roses, and a variety of plants. Thank you for sharing.
Hey, Steph. Yes, I grow knockout roses. My David Austin were grafted and last winter’s Artic blast left me with Dr. Huey. I probably will not order more. My knockouts on the other hand did great.I actually added 2 blushing pink last year and plan to add the new easy bee-zy yellow this year. The white appeals to me as well. Too much money, especially now, to lose thst easily. Thanks for the video.
Hi Peggy! Some roses are very sensitive to the cold snaps. Knockouts are really tough roses. Blushing pink sounds lovely! I picture the combo of the light pink, with yellow, and white to be lovely. Thanks for watching!
Happy Fertilizer Friday! I think I have the same knockouts as you do.....I love mine and they are so very hardy. Thanks for the tips and explanations. I plan on tending to all my seedlings this weekend, so I will be revisiting some of your past videos to watch. Again!!! 🙂 Have a great weekend, Steph!!!

My Knock Out Rose bush deadheads itself. I'm not sure what this video is implicating.
