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.

Swiss Fire (HUBar) Modern, Large flowered Hybrid tea, orange-red. Repeat-flowering. The flowers of this rose open from plump buds into large full petalled blooms, initially with high centers but becoming cupped as the broad petals reflex. They display lively shades of fiery red with geranium red but unfortunately fail to derive any great benefit from the parental fragrance genes, having no more than a light spicy aroma. Blooming continues through summer and autumn. This is a useful plant for beds and near the front of borders, though it does not appear to be commercially available at the present time. The plant grows with an upright, bushy habit to below average height and has matt dark green foliage. Zones 4-9. Huber (Switzerland) 1975. 'Fragrant Cloud' x 'Ena Harkness'.
