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.

Magazine (2016) Page(s) 41. Jennifer Stackhouse. A Family of Roses. Recently I delved into a bit of family and garden history. My great grandfather, G. H. E. Heers (George Heers, 1873-1956) was a rose grower and breeder in Queensland.....'Grandfather' as he is always called in the family.....Grandfather bred his own roses selecting for heat tolerance for the subtropical Queensland conditions. Many of his roses were prefaced by the name 'Pacific'. My aunt, Judith Hobbs, says she recalls Pacific Triumph, which she says was one of the best he bred. It was an orange or pink Polyantha. It was available in the early 1950's in Queensland and may have been grown at Rumsey's Roses in Sydney before that venerable nursery closed.
