Home Run™ Rose -
Shrub Rose
(Color: Showy Flame Red)
This flame-red offspring of the
famous Knock Out kicks the competition up a notch when it comes to disease
resistance. Home Run has a phenomenal fortitude against the dreaded black
spot (like its father). But, unlike Dad, it is also completely resistant
to powdery mildew and has a much higher level of tolerance to downy as well.
Rounded, bushy, fast-to-flower and nearly always in color, it hits a grand slam
in the landscape and scores lots of points in a pot, too.
