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.

I wonder if this rose is named after Leopold Ritter von Sacher-Masoch (27 January 1836 – 9 March 1895) who was an Austrian nobleman, writer and journalist, known for his "romantic" stories of Galician life, aka 50 Shades of Gray of the time. :)

I don't think so. In that case the last name would have been "von Sacher-Masoch", not "Ritter". Josephine Ritter and Leopold Ritter were godmother and godfather to the rose breeder's two sons in 1860 and 1861.

Hi
What is the repeat bloom like? Does it have the typical 4-6 week first flush followed by scattered blooms through fall? Also, I have seen various heights for this - what do you find? Looking for a big shrub/small climber size...

Thanks!

Hopefully Palatine will update their availability list at some point so that their name will show up on the Buy From tab.
