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.

Initial post 25 MAR 16 by Michael Garhart
I first saw this rose when I was a teenager, at the Salem Rose Show. Someone brought it in to float in water, by the entrance. They did not exhibit it. And I was smitten. I won several trophies that day, but it was that rose that I still remember.

The color combination is effortless, intricate, and happy. The scent is nice, and the foliage is pretty.

Sadly, the plant is both good and bad. Blackspot and awkward growth, but also very easy to grow.

Maybe someday someone can make a rose like this, with a better plant under it. Some places also sell the climbing version of it.
