My husband planted some on each side of an arbor where there were already old garden roses in place. We ended up having to move the antiques! I don't think there's anything hardier than antique roses, but the knockouts were growing like teenagers! I must admit that they look pretty and a white antique climber, Sombreuil, persevered, complementing the ever-bloomng red of the knockouts. Good luck with yours! I hope they behave for you!Anastasia Abboudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09461842616822341008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4666301710374702911.post-78560396532308191242013-04-05T08:18:02.640-07:002013-04-05T08:18:02.640-07:00I had some knockout roses that had grown humongous...I had some knockout roses that had grown humongous after three years.

I, too, planted one of everything in one bed, and I'm patiently waiting for one side to get as big as the other, after adding some different plants to that side. Salvias, gauras, daylilies, catmint, dianthus, giant liriope, creeping phlox, to name a few. Depends on the height you want, or you could plant several things with varying heights. Good luck! It'll be fun planting new things in this bed. :) HolleyGardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892421871044249940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4666301710374702911.post-3757772619811323982013-04-03T10:11:41.180-07:002013-04-03T10:11:41.180-07:00You want to get Succession Planting for Adventorou...You want to get Succession Planting for Adventorous Gardeners by Christopher LLoyd.<br /><br />As for plants you could try lavender, geraniums, heucheras, some low grasses such as penistum, irises (but more in front of so the flowers dont get tangled in the flowers), astibles<br /><br />Hope that helpsHelen/patientgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02164036792673009326noreply@blogger.com
