My HMF:

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.

Notes:

Sidney Hockbridge, a California nurseryman, is sometimes credited with breeding this rose, but he is apparently responsible for popularising this variety in the Western U.S.

For clarification about parentage, see References. The seed from which Anemone was first grown originated in Asia, collected by the physician-botanist-Sinologist, Emil Bretschneider. The seed was sent to Europe and germinated there around 1884.

Nigel Pratt at Tasman Bay Roses says this rose has large, single flowers of silvery pink with a touch of mauve. It is best treated as a climber...

The San Jose Heritage Rose Garden's plant is virused but repeats well.
