Background history:
"Rose F. Kennedy" is a diploid dormant introduced in 2007 by George Doorakian. Upon doing an internet search, it was rather interesting what I found and didn't find. George is currently serving as one of the directors of the Patriot Daylily Society (PDS) based in Bedford, MA. I could not find a website for his daylilies, but Mary Collier Fisher (who is the past AHS President and the current treasurer for the PDS) specializes in selling his daylilies. Her website is:

Mr. Doorakian is a rather elusive hybridizer, but some of his daylilies are featured on the PDS website :

He is also featured for his presentation "PDS Colchicine Conversion Clinic by George Doorakian":
