Look at the David Austin roses website and look at some of their red English roses.

@JustJazzmom My roses aren't red.

Do you have any Knock-Out Roses? They're so over-used, I cringe every time I see one. It's bad enough that every convenience store, gas station, and shopping center use them in their landscaping. But people actually use them front-and-center in their home gardens.

I have one Knockout bush in the back corner of my house. I cut some yesterday afternoon and put them in a Tiffany vase on my kitchen counter. I've read that some people find them to be inferior roses, but I liked this one due to its color, hardiness, and abundance of blooms. I also like that pop of fuchsia against the black granite countertop.

@ValuSkr No, I don't, mostly English roses, a few teas and grandifloras, and some mini.

@wildcat fan I know someone who has a plot along a short path with a block of deep rose pink knock-outs, and they are stunning in a row such as that, but I have informal gardens, so they wouldn't work for me.
