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. J. Berrie, Eastwood, NSW The Lasting Qualities of Cut Roses
In the summer time, when flowers suffer most from climatic conditions, they may with safety be plunged into a bath of water for an hour or two before being arranged in the vases, although some varieties, with petalage which is inclined to be tissuey (Florence Pemberton) for instance, would prefer that their heads be lifted clear of the water, otherwise the outer petals are apt to become translucent and floppy.

Everblooming Roses
The so-called Everblooming Roses include the Hybrid Tea and Pernetiana groups. They do not bloom all the time, but if kept healthy and growing steadily, one crop of flowers succeeds another at brief intervals.
Florence Pemberton. Hybrid Tea. (A. Dickson & Sons, 1903.) Beautiful, well-pointed blooms of clear light pink, double to very double, and mildly fragrant. Vigorous growth and very free bloom.
Color is near Antoine Rivoire, but the bloom is larger, looser, and more globular. One of the best very light-colored Roses.
