Pink Knock Out Rose (Rosa ‘Radcon’) is a vibrant and reliable shrub rose that offers months of nonstop color. With its cheerful bright pink blooms that begin in spring and continue all the way until frost, this rose is a standout in any garden. Like the original Red Knock Out, this variety is known for its toughness, but it also boasts improved pest and disease resistance compared to many other rose types.
Its lush green foliage and continuous flowering make it ideal for use as a specimen plant, foundation shrub, or in mixed borders. When planted in groups, it creates an outstanding low hedge that bursts with color for an extended season. Easy to care for and highly rewarding, the Pink Knock Out Rose is an excellent choice for both beginner and experienced gardeners.
Pink Knock Out Rose Care
Plant in well-drained soil in a sunny location for the best bloom production. Water regularly to establish, then provide weekly deep watering during dry spells or extreme heat. Fertilize throughout the growing season to encourage strong growth and continuous flowering. Prune in early spring to shape the plant and stimulate new growth. Deadheading spent blooms will further extend the flowering period.
Pink Knock Out Rose Growth & Spacing
This rose grows 3–4 feet tall and wide with a naturally rounded shape. For borders, hedges, or mass plantings, space plants 5–6 feet apart on center.
