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.

"Alton". (Watlington, 2007). A chance seedling found growing at Alton, horne of Rosemary and John Talbot. Ronica Watlington was given one tiny slip, (cutting) from which she propagated many new plants. When a cluster of blooms is only half spent, new growth with buds is already well-developed, starting from just below the cluster already in flower. This feature makes it difficult to obtain good slips. "Alton" is useful in petite floral designs as blooms and hips are small, bright and perky and last well.
