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.

Giovanni Borgatti (March 3, 1885 Ferrara - June 20, 1974 Pescara) lived in Pescara from 1958-1965. Please see Member Comments for biographical notes. [From Les Amis des Roses, 1934. p.13:] Borgatti (Giovanni), Via Aurelio Saffi n° 20, Bologne (Italie) [From Les Amis des Roses, 1935. p.14:] Borgatti (Giovanni), Via Aurelio Saffi n° 165, Bologne (Italie) [From Modern Roses II, p. 24:] Giovanni Borgatti, Bologna, Italy. [From The Rose Annual, 1981, p. 115:] Giovanni Borgatti was no sooner discharged from his miltary service after the first World War, than he perfected his horticultural knowledge by spending three years at French and German nurseries. On his return to Italy, he raised his first roses. There are about twenty Borgatti varieties, but, a rare preprogative, only 'Jacqueline Mennrath', 'Ninfea' and 'Saonara' are still recognized as valid by their creator.
