Now is the time to prune Knockout Roses. Cutting th
em back at this time of year will rejuvinate the plant and you will have thicker roses. Use a sharp pair of hand pruners or loppers and make your cuts just above where the lower branches start to divide off of the main stalks. Try to make your cuts at about a 45 degree angle so that water will roll off the cuts. You can also remove any dead branches completely. Fertilize with a granular rose food and water it in. In a few weeks you will see lots of new growth and before you know it your Knockouts will be full and lush.

Hi, my name is Justin French.
I recently noticed your article on knockout roses. I loved the article and was wondering if you would mind linking your article to my site. I work for a site called BrighterBlooms.com and we carry a wide variety of landscape shrubs and trees. We would be willing to offer you a plant of your choice off of our website, BrighterBlooms.com. Or if you choose, a cash payment. The value of these would be directly linked to the value of your websites content and information. Terms can be negotiated.
Details about our site are below.
Also, If you have any questions or need anything feel free to call me at brighterblooms@gmail.com or (704)644-4484.
I am a real person, not a link request bot :) :)
Best wishes,
Justin French
