Bred by renowned hybridizer Keith Zary, Pope John Paul II was proudly introduced by Jackson & Perkins in 2008, and it quickly became a favorite among rose lovers and continues to be to this day. Pope John Paul II has been awarded top honors for fragrance, vigorous growth, perfect bloom form, and good disease resistance. It's no wonder it is a showpiece of the Vatican private garden.
As well-known in the rose world as the man for whom it's named, the Pope John Paul II hybrid tea is simply one of the most beautiful and exceptional roses you will ever grow. Its 5-inch blooms are pure, clean white and emit a wonderful fresh citrus fragrance. It truly is one of the most fragrant roses of all time. The blossoms unfurl from elegantly pointed, ovoid buds to reveal up to 50 petals, each standing atop a sturdy 16- to 20-inch stem. Arising in flushes from late spring to late fall, they stand out boldly against the glossy, dark green, disease-resistant foliage.
The plant reaches a mature size of 4 to 5 feet high and 3 to 4 feet wide, with a full, bushy habit, making it perfect for a number of applications: beds, borders, large patio containers, and of course, the cut garden, because you will definitely want to enjoy these stunning, deliciously fragrant blooms in your home.
Remove spent flowers to encourage rebloom. Larger flower size tends to occur in the cool spring.
NOTE: Tree and patio roses are hardy to Zone 6 regardless of the rose variety grafted to their tops.
