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.

Hip or hep is the name for the seed pod of a rose. You can use the seeds to grow different roses, or use them for making a cough syrup, jam, and jelly.

It is the capsule or pod that houses the seeds which have been pollinated or at the best possibly pollinated. The other par is that they could produce new roses, witn patience, there is the last option which is rose hip syrup for toddlers as a nutrition.

The rose hips are also very nutritional (vitamin C w/ rose hips). You can make a tea from them and if you look on the internet you can find all kinds of neat info about the medicinal values and uses. They are also (if large) considered an asset for the appearance; large orange or red fruits in the fall and winter when all else is dead.
