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.

'Narrow Water' before 1900
syn: Rosa moschata 'Narrow Water', R. pissardi 'Narrow Water'
'A pink counterpart of (Pissardii), which is almost extinct. This has large upstanding trusses of sweet scented pink flowers. Very good as an autumnal.'
Presumed to have arisen at Narrow Water castle. The name originally published was Rosa pissardii 'Narrowwater'.
In Gardening Illustrated (2 September 1939), 'C.' wrote that 'Narrow Water' is 'one of the most charming members of the Musk Rose family. It is really R. moschata var. nasturana 'Narrow Water'. The Nasturana rose is a native of Persia and usually called R. pissartii, from the name of the former gardener to the Shah ... In this country the form 'Narrow Water', so called from the Ulster river castle of that name - makes a bush about six feet high.'
Beales (1985) wrote, 'I grow more fond of it each season.'
