Easy rose trend

**"* M* <b*@impact-pr.com>**

The gardening industry has known for sometime that easy to grow roses
were driving sales, but it now appears that carefree roses as a major
trend in gardening has hit the big league.  Rebercca Kolls just did a
segment on Roses 101 for ABC Good Morning America last week.  Check it

ml .  

And The Wall Street Journal will feature Knock OutR
(www.theknockoutrose.com) and other easy to grow roses in an article
scheduled to run on July 9th in the Weekend Journal section. The
reporter is focusing on low maintenance roses that anyone can grow as a
new fad in gardening.  The reporter interviewed Steve Hutton, president
of The Conard-Pyle Company, along with some happy gardeners who before
planting Knock Out were "afraid" to grow roses.
