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.

New American Pedigree Roses.
Five Remarkable Novelties, named in honor of the Great African Explorer—Henry M. Stanley, Mrs. Jessie Fremont, Pearl Rivers, Maud Little, Golden Gate—The Henry M. Stanley Set. :
See Illustration, page 6.—We are sure our friends will welcome these Splendid New American Pedigree Roses, which we have the pleasure of offering for the first time this year. They are the rarest novelties of the season, and the mere announcement of their coming has aroused a wide-spread interest that will doubt less absorb the whole stock we have to offer. Each one of these charming novelties is the product of a special union of two of the choicest old sorts, whose good qualities have in this way been combined and improved in the most interesting manner. And when it is considered that these remarkable combinations were made under the most favorable conditions, and in a Southern climate and locality, where Roses reach their fullest perfection, it is natural that they should prove of unusual beauty and value. The work of obtaining these beautiful novelties by artificial hybridization has required years of careful study and patient skill, and it is confidently believed that they will prove highly interesting and reliable additions to our Lists of Beautiful Roses, but few of which have been originated in this country.
