And I, on the other hand, ask them which Knock Out [TM] they mean.  :) Do
you mean the double Knock Out [TM]?  Or the blush colored one?
Or the...  Oh, you meant Rosa 'Radcor', or the one they call rainbow.
It's so confusing since Knock Out [TM] is a general trademark used for
multiple roses, more for branding.  Fortunately, we have that nice,
individual cultivar name to differentiate it.

Same goes for Hydrangea Endless Summer [TM].  Then I usually tell them that
it's an over-priced, over-marketed selection and they should consider
something like Hydrangea 'Sadie Ray' instead.  :)
