" These are just a few suggestions for very easy-to-grow roses for less experienced gardeners. Many of these require no care after planting.

Knock Out � This landscape rose has become popular because it is so easy to grow. It comes in a variety of colors, is disease resistant and blooms all season.

Little Mischief � Perfect for a sunny garden, this variety won�t cause mischief despite its name, and will grow disease free all season long.

Snowdrift � A hardy shrub with beautiful white flowers, this variety makes a beautiful cut flower arrangement.

Paint the Town � Producing an abundance of red flowers continually, this mounding variety is ideal ground cover in sunny areas.

Grandma�s Blessing � One of the newer low-care breeds, this one produces full light pink blooms and smells wonderful.

Superhero � Who wouldn�t like to grow a rose called "Superhero?" This super easy-growing, disease-resistant shrub provides gorgeous large flowers.

Sunrise Sunset � The fuchsia flowers fade to apricot at the center of this ground cover that is so versatile it�s one of the varieties that grows in almost every climate."

That's a great article. Nice to see someone recommending more than just KOs for a change. I like that they broke them into categories from beginner to advanced too.
