I've been seeing row upon row of roses lately. I mean huge rows, too. Waves of colors on banks and along fences. I finally stopped at a local nursery to ask what kind of rose everyone is planting to get such a beautiful display. The answer - Knockout Roses.
And they are a knockout. We cleaned up a few years of semi-neglect along the front porch and planted three Cherry Red Double Knockout Roses. I can't wait until mine grow to resemble the photo.
Too bad they didn't have them twenty years ago. It would have saved me an awful lot of time weeding.

Those are lovely! I inherited a rosebush with the house when we bought it, and I've not done well taking care of it, but it's still alive! It's in desperate need of a pruning, though.
Hopefully your bushes will fill out quickly!
