Normal new growth or rosette?

[Crystal]

Hi everyone. I am new to gardening and have just planted a knockout rose two days ago. I noticed this morning that some leaves were red and upon looking it up found out about the dreaded rose rosette. I took a couple pictures and was hoping you could tell me if this is normal new growth or if I will be taking the store up on their one year guarantee!

Looks like normal new growth to me...

It looks normal to me too. Some roses particularly red ones have dark leafed young foliage.

I have a ton of new growth on mine that looks like that

Grown roses for a lot of years. Yes it's normal growth. It will change to green when it matures.

Don't worry Crystal. Its a normal new growth.

Sheal I liked your rose, it is damn beautiful.

Thank you @JesseCody

Having relocated nine months ago I'm currently renting a property while I look for somewhere to buy. Unfortunately this house doesn't have a garden so 'Rob Roy' was one of nine roses that I introduced to my previous garden. I miss them all!

@Sheal that's a shame, hope you find something soon.
