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.

Durrell Mountain Road New Hampshire United States
USDA Zone: 4b (-25 to -20 F / -31.6 to -28.9 C)
I grow over 350 different roses (and that number is always growing!) in my 1-acre yard. I am always building new garden beds but am running out of room! I love all roses, and have representatives
from every class of rose that will survive my zone 4 winters. I grow Albas, Damasks, Mosses , Hybrid Perpetuals, Gallicas, Species, Centifolias, Rugosas, Scotch roses, Portlands, Floribundas, Old & Modern Shrub roses, Hybrid Teas, Ramblers, Climbers, and Miniatures. They each have their own special beauty but the Old Roses were my first loves and will
always be dearest to my heart. My most loved are the "found" or rescued roses.
My husband and I have acquired many of our beloved roses through our searching out old cemeteries and taking cuttings or seeds and propagating them. We make sure to give the "mother" plants lots of
TLC and return every year to check on her welfare so that she will continue to prosper. Our mission
is to save as many of these venerable survivors so that they are not lost to neglect and the ravages of time.
I also grow hundreds of lilies, perennials, clematis, spring-flowering bulbs, and have 2 water gardens. But roses will always be my true loves!
