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.

‘Christian Dior’/MEIlie = Hybride de Thé… grande fleur sophistiquée… 55 pétales d’un rouge cramoisi brillant lavé d’écarlate au revers. Idéalement formée avec un cœur turbiné et des pétales roulottés en pointes, elle parachève sa toilette d’une touche de parfum subtil… buisson dense au feuillage ferme et luisant… Si on le protège de l’oïdium, sa végétation est remarquablement saine. Meilland, France, 1958.

David Ruston, South Australia. Roses of Distinction. 
'Christian Dior' is always easily identified in the garden by its very dark wood, ungainly habit of growth, large bush and by the orange base to each petal. When picked and used with other red roses in the home most of the others will turn to a blue-red, but this one retains its colour and form amazingly well.
