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.

To my knowledge this rose is essentially once blooming. I don't know if it might offer some repeat when it becomes mature or for those in certain favored climates.

Robert-
Now that you've had this rose for approx. 2 more years, have you noticed in your own garden if those rose repeats after the once-blooming period is over? Also - for how many weeks did it bloom and did you have to dead-head or did the petals fall off on their own? Thanks!

HI Carlene, I no longer grow 'Evergreen Gene', so I can't give you much further information.

My space here is limited. I gave propagation materials to both Roses Unlimited and Cool roses then let my specimen go.

As I remember the blossoms shed of their on accord. This cultivar gets large and needs to be given support and space to show it's self.

I still grow it. It's easily 25 feet. And it is a once bloomer in San Diego. It grows up through the top of my 20 foot Mermaid and keeps on trucking.
