'Rosenprofessor Sieber ®' rose Description

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.

Prof. Dr. Josef ("Sepp") Sieber (September 29, 1920 Werschetz (Banat, today Vrsac in Vojvodina/Serbia) - January 26, 2011 Freising) was called the Rose Professor for his engagement for roses.
In the UK, this rose is known as 'The Halcyon Days Rose' named for the famous Mayfair antique shop Halcyon Days. Fifty years ago, Halcyon Days began selling rare collectors' items and in 1970 they revived the lost English art of enamelling. Mattocks Roses introduced 'The Halcyon Days Rose' at the 2000 Chelsea Flower Show. (By the way, Halcyon Days has a web site,
