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.

Website/Catalog (1900)
We have chosen to call this magnificent new variety The Victory Rose, not only to mark the triumph of the American arms, but to indicate in a more peaceful way as well the triumphant skill of American Rose growers to surpass the world in perfecting the Rose-nature's sweetest creation.
This is a free-blooming, strong-growing hardy Hybrid Perpetual. To say that it is an improvement over General Jacqueminot, we think will be sufficient indorsement to make it the most popular variety of recent introduction. The flowers are beautifully made, very full, round and double, of immense size and splendid substance. They are born both early and late on long, stiff stems, and are deliciously fragrant. The color is deep crimson, rich and velvety, while the foliage is the most handsome we have ever seen upon any Rose — deep green, large and of great endurance, making it proof against all mildew and insect attacks. It is a splendid grower and is absolutely hardy in all sections of the country. We consider it a Rose of wonderful value.
