Star® Roses and Plants
Star® Roses and Plants has been bringing great plants to the world’s gardens since 1897. Many notable roses, shrubs and perennials have made it to market, but one of the most impressive to date is The Knock Out® Family of Roses. Introduced in 2000, this family of extremely floriferous, low-maintenance shrub roses revolutionized the way we think of roses. Equally impressive is a collection of groundcover roses, Drift® Roses, which offer a more compact solution to gardens of all sizes. With more to offer than just roses, Star® Roses and Plants also has breakthrough edibles. The Bushel and Berry® series is a collection of compact, self-pollinating, berry plants for the home garden. These blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries are easy to grow and easy to love! At Star® Roses and Plants, we are a family of brands. We always learn from the plants we trial, and as a result, we are proud to bring breakthrough plants and programs to market so that your gardening experience is just a little happier as a result.
