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.

How fast does this climber grow? I've had the climber 4TH OF JULY for 7 years and it's only 5 feet tall. I've had BERRIES & CREAM for 10 years and it's only 5 1/2 feet tall. On the contrary, I had Mme. DRIOUT for 3 months and I had to buy a trellis in a hurry because it was growing and climbing so fast. And I treated all 3 climbers the same way (watered, ferlized, etc.) I loved Mme. DRIOUT!!! Smelled so good, it's intoxicating and..... a repeat bloomer. Only problems are:
1) It was prone to rust
2) flowers are so big the small stems couldn't support them so they would always be droopy.
Unfortunately, it died last year. I don't know why. Might have been the frost. But I enjoyed it for 7 years!!! I saw CANDY LAND at KING'S NURSERY. By the way the cane and stems look it would probably be a slow grower like the 4th of July and Berries and Cream. (I'm starting to be able to predict how fast a climber will grow by owning these 3 climbers.) I don't want these. I want a fast grower striped rose climber that's also a repeat bloomer. Can anybody suggest a name?

Shadow Dancer grows faster than the above striped climbers you have mentioned. With that said, it is still a shorter climber like the above climbers that you have mentioned...	REPLY

Oh ! 5ft in 7 years, that's really disappointing. I planted candy land and James Galway at the same time in the same conditions and James produced over a dozen new canes reaching app 6 ft and in the same time candyland produced three canes reaching 1 1/2 feet !
That said it is a glorious colour combination and the flowers, although miserable in quantity, stay on the plant for a month !!
It has zero fragrance but then that was year 1. Here's hoping for a better show this year
