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.

Old Texas Rose

Newsletter (2017) Page(s) Summer issue, p. 19.

[From "Old Tales from an Old Rose Collector", by Pamela Ashworth Puryear (reprint from Summer 1987 issue), pp. 17-19]
In April 1980, I spotted the light pink shrub roses at Hall’s Triangle Store, in Navasota. Last summer I finally got cuttings to Mike Shoup; we named it ‘Charlemagne” in honor and appreciation of Charles Walker, who identified it as a Noisette. Charles is the Heritage Rose Group’s Southeast coordinator and, more recently, founder of the Heritage Rose Foundation, and he is a fine botanist. The buds of the rose greatly resemble those of Cecille Brunner.
