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.

p11. Harry H. Hazlewood. The New Roses of 1950.
Best Regards (HT.) (Morris 1944). This variety might sometimes be considered a border line case between deep pink and light red. At its best its petals show a cardinal red inner face with a reverse of tyrian rose with a really distinct yellow base. It is a very vigorous grower, most prolific in bloom and an outstanding variety. Mr. Morris is a newcomer in the field of hybridists and has also given the rose world the brilliant 'San Fernando', with others of equal excellence to follow.

Best Regards (1 plant, 1 year). A two-toned pink resembling Mrs. A. R. Barraclough in colour except that the inner aspect of each petal is a deeper pink and the outside has much more yellow especially towards the base. In form it is of the type of Mrs. Bryce Allen and Silver Jubilee. The petals do not reflex much. A distinctive rose, excellent in colour, form, size, health, growth and freedom of bloom, it is sure to win favour quickly.
