My Blushing Knockout has grown like crazy since planting it 2 1/2 yrs. ago. It is almost 7 ft. tall and 5 ft. wide. People are constantly asking about it. It blooms from March/April through December. Subtle fragrance. One of my garden favorites!

Shares the same qualities as cherry red Knock Out and/or the Pink Knock Out. I like it better because fewer people grow it. Extremely disease resistant, vigorous grower and prolific bloomer.
