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.

This rose is a survivor. It was planted about 8 years ago at my parents house and has received absolutely no care. It was surrounded by weeds, not pruned, and not fed. It has survived winters that are considered normal, below normal, and above normal for zone 4b both in temperatures and in snow amount. It does die back to the ground but always throws up more shoots and blooms its head off. Bugs and snails have eaten all its leaves off yet it produces more and throws up a few more canes too. Blooms in clusters of about 5-10 throughout the season. Highly recommend if you need a red climber that can take a lot of abuse. This will probably be stunning in more ideal situatios.

To have a snail free yard foliar spray your roses with a macro nutrient product called "maxsea". its a 16-16-16 NPK. Becasue of the salts in the kelp seaweed product the snails run for their lives.
