I am putting in a new border garden in my yard this weekend. I have 4 double knock out roses bushes that I am putting in there–but I have allowed lots of space for the bushes to spread. I would like to add some other perennials that would complement the roses. What can you suggest? I am in Zone 5 and the location is in full sun. I would like something that does not require a lot of care–

Yellow Stella de Oro daylily would look great with the roses.

Which color? The original knockout is kind of raspberry colored. So is the pink. The blush is true pink.
A row of white alyssum in the front edge looks great with knockouts.
If you have the raspberry shades, go with blues and whites, such as blue salvia or veronica.
The new northern crape myrtle Hopi is an exact match to Blush.

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,
