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.

A List of Sixty Choice Peonies of the More Expensive Varieties
Pink Varieties
Phoebe Cary (Brand).  8.8.  We consider this a second Martha Bulloch.  The variety was introduced in 1907, but was so good that before we were aware of it, almost our entire stock was gone.  The stock which we had for sale last year was exhausted before the shipping season was over, and we were obliged to refund on late orders.  This variety is of a true rose type.  The petals are large, broad, and of good substance.  It is slightly cupped, the color is a beautiful rose pink, with the center slightly deeper in shade.  The fragrance is pleasant.  It is a late blooming variety, coming in season with Marie Lemoine.  The plant is tall, with an abundance of light green foliage.
