Questions for those who are growing knockout roses here...
Will they bloom thruout the winter, if not for what duration are they flowerless? How drought tolerant/ lack of care tolerant for the Summer when I'll be gone?
Any good varieties that are 3-5 foot tall, more like a shrub and red?

We are seasonal residents, here from November to May. We have four knockout rose bushes. They require minimal care and seem to be resistant to frost. Ours do well just being watered by our irrigation system once a week. We see pictures of them taken during the summer when we're gone, and they are gorgeous. They seems to bloom off and on all winter long. Love them. Fairfield Farms usually has a good selection of Knockout roses.
