If you currently have Knock Outs from previous seasons, be sure to cut them down so their height is 8 to 10 inches from the ground and if you practice doing this every year you will have Knock Outs that will grow to 3 or 4 feet tall and wide with bloom aplenty.

But if you choose to prune canes back higher, like 18 inches from the ground then you will have Knock Outs that will grown 5 feet or higher but with a lot less bloom color.

Knock Outs are the only family of rose that will grown in as little as 3 hours of sun per day. All day sun is the best.
You might consider applying Fertilome Systemic Soil Drench to keep Beetles and Rose Slugs away for the entire season. Just one application is all they need. There are seven different varieties of Knock Outs to choose from. Buying 3 gallon 2 year old plants is the best quality for instant success.
