The old adage “Good things come in small packages” certainly applies to this rose. It is a small bush growing 0.65m to 1.0 metre tall and 0.5m wide.
The classically shaped, pale apricot flowers are only 3 to 4 cm in diameter. They are either borne as single flowers per stem or in clusters of 4 to 12. The beautiful, high-centred flowers are perfect for small arrangements, button holes or for the show bench. The plant produces blooms throughout the growing season and is outstanding in spring and autumn and continues to flower through summer.
‘Jean Kenneally’ was bred by famous rose breeder Dee Bennett in California, USA, in 1984. Dee Bennett was known as the ‘Queen of Mini Roses’ and bred and introduced over 80 varieties.
