I have only grown Orange Glow Knock Out for one year (2024), but I think its going to be a keeper. Being disease free, a strong grower and very free bloomer make it fit the bill for me.

Home Depot mail order online has it delivered to you, free postage. Can't beat that. 2 gal. size (4,993 bushes in stock), is $26.98, and 1 gal. size (4,995 in stock), is just $19.98!....that's $7.00 dollars less.

For those of you who are familiar with Double Pink Knock Out, Orange Glow's bloom is on that order of flower form...very nice, but more cupped and less quilling as the bloom ages. If you didn't know that OGKO was a Knock Out, you would think it was a Kordes or Meilland in many regards.

If you order your bush through Home Depot, make sure you don't order it too early in case it comes leafed out if you are in a cold zone. It will surely get cold zapped through time spent in transit. Wait a while.

I prefer this one: Double Easy Orange. Diane

In continuous bloom, full flush, from May through October. I also like Double Ambre and will probably order it.

Diane, I've been eyeing the Double Easy Orange ever since you posted about it before. If you had choice, would it be grafted bareroot or the 2 quart?

Told him he has only to get through tonight & tomorrow & then it will be time to see the Dr. I don't think he's too happy - growled! lol! Gets his bath tomorrow, brushed, & his nails trimmed. He'll be ready! Me - I'm just trying to stay in the 'positive' mode! :)) Thanks for the prayers & comments everyone!! I appreciate them very, very much! Made my evening (or should I say 1:58 am) seem a little better! Thank you!! You guys/gals are TOPS! Nephew's doing better! He'll be seeing the family Dr. on Monday as well! A busy day Monday! I'm also taking a vacation day Monday - not sure what to expect?? I hope all goes well! Everyone - give your fur-babies, cats, kittens, birds, reptiles, whatever the case may be (even tropical fish!!) - a HUGE & very tight hug!! It makes you feel very 'good' inside & it does make a difference! :)) Love you all! Mike

Judith, I just meant weren't you impressed with every table posted? Such fun items and the way they carried out a "theme". They all did a wonderful job of following the concepts YOU had shared with us about carrying the colors throughout the table and "thinking outside the box". Very creative ladies, and so much fun too! And you do get credit for having posted your beautiful stacked plates and tablescapes and getting all of us interested in doing our own and sharing them with each other on here. ;o) Luvs

Well,I just scrolled through this entire thread and I am consumed with jealousy over your gardens. My little quarter acre doesn't allow for too many beds and my aging body does not either. The front of my house needs desperately to be relandscaped but digging out the old stuff is more than I can manage. It is raining buckets today and we have had a generally rainy spring. My peonies no sooner bloom than the rain beats them down. I was thrilled to see that a Kopper King Hibiscus that I relocated last year is coming back. It looked dead as a doornail, but now a big lovely shoot is coming up. My garden was not put together with much of a plan. I just add things as I fall in love with them. This year I added a deutzia. Here are my azaleas from earlier this spring along the driveway. I dug them out of my mother's woods about 35 years ago and I had no idea what colors they were, but I kind of like the mix. Here is my tree peony: What is the name of this pink flower? I know it is rather common, but I can never remember the name. It comes up all through my raised bed each spring and it is so adorable:

I have the 2 thumbalinas in pots but I banged out the bottom and have them sitting in the courtyard and the roots are out the bottom and into the ground now. I fertilize with fish emulsion and liquid seaweed alternately in a weak solution. If I can locate a J-4, I will gift out the thumbalinas to a neighbor. My new thing is 1 in, 1 out....upgrading all the way. JJ has really gotten this down on coming up with making ones that are happy bloomers. roxanne

I love my grafted DEO, but Jim in Pennsylvania has an own root DEO that is doing really well, too. I prefer grafted roses in general and have have some negative experience with own root. Diane

I like the looks of Double Easy Orange and I wonder if it can compare to the KO on the blackspot resistance

Double Easy Orange has yet to be proven black spot resistant here. No one growing it locally (Northern/Eastern/Southern USA), has yet to post about its disease resistance who grows it here abouts that I can recall. DEO is a stunner, as Diane's photos of it prove. Although however, it looks like it could have weak neck issues here since it rains sufficiently enough to weigh down heavy petaled/skinny necked blooms. That's why if even the most beautiful of bloomed rose that is also rock solid black spot resistant has a weak neck/nodding bloom, I don't want it.

Mine is going on its 3rd year and is one of my favorites, I ordered another this year. Big healthy bush, little to no blackspot in my garden - I havent had weak necks. It is a very generous bloomer! To me, a really good rose. I like KO Orange low too. Tough rose - no blackspot, blooms lots. Blooms of Dbl. Easy Orange are more appealing to me but KO Orange Glow is pretty too. Really like them both.

If my fellow Roses Forum members knew what 'tricks,' and ' maneuvers,' Vapor, I, and probably others go through to create an intelligible post, you would award us a medal for perseverance. So, please Diane, don't let your understandable frustration keep you away from your rose buddies here. You are a pillar of the Roses Forum, and good as medicine to us who can only dream of growing roses to the degree of perfection and opulence that you do.Your photographic skills are unequaled, and inspire us, also.

Moses.
