OMGosh Spider I can't believe the one you rooted from a bouquet it is really cool and beautiful...
I bet your swing area smells like heaven.
 
A lady advertised knockout rose's today.On our local radio station I went to see what she had.She had yellow,lite pink ,and a dark pink knockout rose.She was asking $8.00 not a bad price.But I was scared to buy them.They had a white mold on the lower leave's.Didn't want to bring something here that would attack my other's.Sure did want one of the yellow's.She said there was nothing wrong with her rose's.
 
Spidey...I was just reading about an organic control for powdery mildew where you combine 1 Tablespoon baking soda, 1/2teaspoon liquid dish soap into 1 gallon of water. Don't save any leftover material and don't spray in full sun. The knockouts are fairly resistant to most diseases. Mine got some aphids during our hot spell, I gave them a rose spray and they seem to be gone now.

Blushing Rosa Radyod pink.Now here's the best thing.This place has had these rose's two week's blooms gone but still has bud's.They were on clearance 75% off I bought 4 for $10.39. gal.pot size.Their still pretty and full of leave's.She said they were getting in a load for Mother's Day in the morning.Making space for them.The one's tomorrow will be $10.00
 
That is a deal Spider. I looked in the paper today and Lowe's and HD have Knock out and some other roses for $7.50 for 2 gallons. I am really tempted to get one of myself for mother's day.

Dor their great very easy to care for .They almost take care of them selves.
 
Yes they are Spider. I have one and it almost blooms year around and I don't do much of anything to it. I would like another color besides red though.
 
I love roses don't matter what they are their all beautiful.Trying to buy a few along of the knockout just because they bloom year round.I love all the color's wanted a yellow for a while now I have two of them.And two different color pink's.My son said Mom what's something you want for Mother's Day I said buy me a rose bush and I can enjoy it for year's.So I'm expecting a new one.He said ok if that's what you want.:)

Beautiful Spider. I don't have any buds on my hydrangeas yet.
 
WOW Spider your roses are spectacular. I just love your yellow roses. Yellow was my mothers favorite color in roses and its mine to.
Very pretty hydrandgea mine are in full buds just begining to show a little color.
I like the Knock-Out roses and the Endless Summer hydrangea because they both bloom all summer.
 
A few more.
