| My friend's aunt told her that she has started a lot of new knock out roses by cutting a cane and putting a mason jar over it for the winter. Here in West TN we have very mild winters. Has anyone else in my area tried this with any luck? |

| I'm sure it would have a chance of working, but just be aware that most knockout roses are still under patent, so it is illegal to propagate them. Patents on roses are valid for 20 years; so anything after 1992 is still under patent. If you go to Helpmefind.com and search "knockout" it will tell you the year the rose was patented. :) There�s many other roses besides knockout that are perfectly legal and even more beautiful�take a look on HMF and there may be someone willing to do a cutting exchange with you.
