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.

He showed me a mossed, double, pink Hybrid Tea many years ago. It was code named 7 -58-10. He had used it to create ‘Dresden Doll’ and said he had the paperwork all ready to patent it many years before, but never got around to it. The rose repeats its bloom all season as any HT is expected, but is mossed and predated any other modern moss by decades. His coding system indicates it first bloomed in 1958

#7-58-1 (Pink Moss). ...This is a cross of the red floribunda variety Red Ripples x O.M. It is an everbloomin, bush type, floribunda rose which grows into a sturdy bush up to 3 feet tall. Buds are well mossed and open into 3" medium pink flowers with about 20 petals. This was an important step in the breeding of several of the new moss hybrids.

Another seedling we have used in our breeding of moss roses came from a cross of the old red floribunda Red Ripples x 'O.M.) (see Fig...) This selection makes a sturdy bush of the floribunda type. Large well mossed pink buds and flowers are produced all season.
