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.

R. Marion Hatton.  Understocks in America
The United States Department of Agriculture has done, and is still doing, considerable experimenting with Rose understocks, and their best results so far have been with a variety of Multiflora, " Chenault 5892," which is somewhat stronger growing than the Multi-flora now in use, and in the Government tests has produced more flowers per plant than any other understock. It will be tried out by some of the nurseries as soon as a sufficient quantity of seed plants can be grown.
