Rose Sunny Knock Out® PP#18,562
The only fragrant Knock Out®, it boasts the heady apple-like aroma of sweetbriar.
These single blooms reach 3 inches across and radiate soft, bright color from late spring until first hard frost. Very abundant, they lighten and brighten any setting, and once they are fully blooming, the combination of yellow, cream, and white blooms is breathtaking. This plant tends to repeat in great waves, so it is seldom caught of bloom over its long, long season!
Like other Knock Outs®, Sunny is very resistant to blackspot as well as to mildew, rust, and Japanese beetles. Vigorous and very well-branched, it reaches 4 to 4 1/2 feet tall and spreads nearly as wide, with excellent branching studded with buds and blooms. A carefree joy for any sunny setting from the rose garden to a hedge, foundation, or border, Sunny Knock Out® is not to be missed!
If you like the idea of a rose that blooms heavily over 3 seasons without spraying or pruning, resists blackspot and other problems, and always looks fresh and tidy, you must try other Knock Outs® as well. New White Out™ is a single-flowered pure white variety that combines perfectly with Sunny, while any of the double-flowered varieties work as well. Whatever look you desire, there's probably a Knock Out® just made for it! Zones 5-9.
