Features
Coral Knock Out® Rose is smothered in stunning lightly-scented orange flowers at the ends of the branches from late spring to mid fall that fade to coral-pink over time. The flowers are excellent for cutting. It has attractive dark green foliage which emerges coppery-bronze in spring.

The spiny brick red bark adds an interesting dimension to the landscape.
Care
Planting & Growing
Coral Knock Out® Rose will grow to be about 5 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 5 feet. It tends to fill out right to the ground and therefore doesn't necessarily require facer plants in front, and is suitable for planting under power lines. It grows at a fast rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 20 years.
This shrub should only be grown in full sunlight. It does best in average to evenly moist conditions, but will not tolerate standing water. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution. This particular variety is an interspecific hybrid.
