Knockout leaves don't match?

17 years ago

I just bought a new double KO rose, and the leaves don't match the other ones I have. I'm adding to a row, so I need to be sure...

The old KO leaves are mostly smaller and darker green. The new one has bigger lighter colored leaves. Is it because the new one is younger, do you think? I bought the old and new in the same reputable nursery. Do you think I may have gotten a single KO by mistake? Do singles and doubles have different leaves???

Thanks!

Could the new plant have been grown in a greenhouse environment or under different growing conditions than your garden? You won't really be able to tell until it blooms. If you can wait until it does, then you'll know for sure.

Yes, it probably has been in a greenhouse for a while. If it is the correct one, will it eventually grow to match the others, do you think?

It should, yes. Keep your receipt, just in case.
