Care
Double Knock Out® Rose Care
Plant in full sun for the best bloom production and overall vigor. Aim for at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.
Choose well-drained soil and avoid sites that stay soggy. If your soil is heavy, amend planting areas to improve drainage.
Water regularly during establishment. Once established, water deeply during extended dry periods, especially during summer heat.
In early spring, apply a balanced slow release fertilizer to support strong growth and repeat flowering.
Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. A light shaping prune helps maintain size and encourages fresh flowering growth.
