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.

‘Blaze’ = Grimpant à grande fleur. Très apprécié aux Etats-Unis… kyrielles de fleurs écarlates, épanouies en grands bouquets drus sur de robustes rameaux… en coupe, odorantes et bien doubles... Vigoureux et accomodant... robustes tiges flexibles, garnies d’un abondant feuillage vert franc, d’ordinaire très sain, encore qu’au Royaume-Uni, il soit parfois touché par l’oïdium. Sa remontance automnale est sujette à discussion; sur ce point, il se peut qu’il ait été confondu avec une forme sélectionnée ultérieure. Kallay, US 1932.

Large-flowered. Mr. Kallay, Parmesville, Ohio, introduced in 1932. ('Paul's Scarlet Climber' x 'Grüss an Teplitz') For many years 'Blaze' was the most popular climbing rose, at least in America. Flowers: red, middle-sized, clusters. The original 'Blaze' was reluctant to rebloom. In 1950 Jackson & Perkins discovered a more continuously blooming clone which they originally called 'Blaze Superior' which has usurped the original in catalogues, and dropped (usually) the 'Superior' from its name.

'Paul's Scarlet Climber' ..... In the United States, a form called 'Blaze' was raised by Joseph Kallay of Painesville, Ohio, and introduced by J. & P. in 1932. It was supposed to be remontant, but we in Britain could not see any difference from the original.
