Planting & Care

Plant Petite Knock Out® roses in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Dig a hole two to three times wider than the root ball and the same depth as the container. Place the plant so the top of the root ball sits level with the surrounding soil, backfill, and water thoroughly. Apply mulch around the base to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Water weekly during the first growing season to establish strong roots. Light pruning in late winter or early spring will help maintain shape and encourage vigorous flowering throughout the season.
