Named for the beloved President, 'John F. Kennedy' Hybrid Tea was introduced to American gardens in 1965. The tall bush, with its attractive, leathery, medium green foliage, bears repeatedly throughout the summer very large, 5 to 6-inch wide, fully double, creamy white blossoms that open from long, pointed to oval, slightly greenish buds on long cutting stems. Each heat-resistant blossom's 45 to 50 petals bear such a persistent, fruity perfume you'll understand at one sniff why 'John F. Kennedy' is considered one of the most desirable scented white roses of all time.
