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.

Thanks Virginia. Ref added. A few different synonyms in the references. Not sure what to add for the moment.

I can't imagine that you'll want another, but 'Annals of Horticulture' (vol. 4, 1849, p.464) has a brief mention (no description) of a Noisette that flowers in bunches called... yes, 'André Selle'. I see no other online rose mentions using that spelling, so I do think it's a typo.

There is a commune in France called Audreselles, just a bit north of Boulogne-sur-Mer. There are historical references to the area (or a town in the area, maybe?) sometimes being called Andreselles. It's common enough in French and English sources that I do think it's an alternate spelling, as sometimes happens with old place names. I have no idea if it might be the inspiration for the Noisette's name, however...
