HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

At first I wasn`t able to descry much difference at all between this one and the ordinary "Jackmanii" (which is I dare say Norwegian gardeners` first choice of clematis.) May be with the exception of a slight touch of wine red. By and by i have learnt to see the special qualities of the Superba variety. The somewhat bigger flowers have a strikingly beautiful velvety and sort of more intense deep violet blue colour with the aforesaid slight touch of wine red. I have two plants, and one of them has been a bit touched by the withering disease which doesn`t seem to affect the ordinary Jackmanii. However both plants are doing very well and one of them has been flowering way into October (check uploaded photos) I do recommend this variety as well.
