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.

Currently in stock at Lowe's (Oregon). Usually wouldn't say that, but I have never seen it sold in person before.

I grew Promise at 6,000 ft. It is very heat and cold tolerant. Because our climate is so dry, I had very little trouble with black spot. Loved the dinner plate size blooms. The color of foliage and bloom are spectacular. I would love to replace this rose, I was afraid to move a 25 year old plant.

I think half of the pictures are Tournament of Roses due to their other identical name.

Ridiculously tender, in 6a with protection it is still an annual. And it blackspots first of them all, but the color of pink is so clear and so pure it can be worth it!..................

Update, 5/12: Menard's store here in Columbus has not only THIS one, but Heirloom, Paradise, Sutter's Gold, Mojave, Arizona, Bon-Bon, Oregold, America, Love, Apollo, Gypsy...............some weird and blessed access to budwood from the mid-century and they are all blooming and yep, they are TRUE.................and yes, I bought a PROMISE..............before it blooms it looks exactly like Royal Highness, gorgeous leaves.................I will simply spray it every 12 hours.............

Always feels good to find a "friend in need"................

And, in the warmer, inland valleys around Los Angeles, the blooms can nearly approach dinner plate size. Pretty awful plant, but stunning flowers.
