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.

The rose known in Australia as the Tea ‘Mme. Charles’ is a large bush with long canes and masses of small-to-medium semi-double flowers in shades of pink, apricot, fawn and white. It does not match the apricot Tea bred by Damaizin in 1864, which was described by Foster-Melliar in 1902 as “an improved strain of Safrano”. This imposter is in commerce in Australia and elsewhere as the China ‘Duke of York’, bred by W. Paul in 1894, and overseas it is also sold as ‘Papillon’.
[This rose was sent out from Sangerhausen in the early 1980s to Rumsey Roses, NSW and possibly to world-wide nurseries, under the name Mme Charles]
