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.

Frank Leith Skinner: In 1960 I raised a number of hybrids having as one parent a China rose hybrid of my own raising that was root-hardy and using as the other parents Simonet's R. laxa hybrid and Souvenir de Alphonse de Lavelle. Several of these have flowered that are hardier than the Old China rose and at the same time have inherited the remontant flowering habit and shapely double flowers. One of these that I have named Jessie Anderson has survived the past two winters without protection and has flowered from June onwards. The flowers are deep red in colour and larger than those of the Old China rose.

[In "A Little Bit of Rose Breeding", by F. L. Skinner:] 
One I have named 'Jessie Anderson,' is the result of a cross between an unnamed 'Old Crimson China' hybrid and 'Souvenir d'Alphonse Lavallée,' the hardiest dark red hybrid perpetual I have grown. The plant was potted last winter for propagating. The color is a dark red and the form is a fully double hybrid perpetual shape.
