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.

Dear Karl Rand,
In response to your comment in HMF Plant Listing on July 19 seeking information about ‘Devon’, There is more info in the ‘Devon’ file now. Is it possible you would like to share what you have found on ‘Devon’ as well? I grow this rose and it really was very pretty the first year or so, but I think it might like more attention than I manage to give it. The spent flowers stayed in the cluster while others were opening around the deaduns. it was rather fiddly pruning them out. The bush grew about a metre high and the canes were rather diagonally spreading. After ten years there are now some thin canes on my bush about half a metre high.

The 2000 reference mentions that it was the Auckland Rose of the Year. But as far as I understand it, the incorrect synonym mentioned in that reference, ‘Enchantment’, [or Queen Margrethe] probably was the Rose of the Year in Auckland, 1997.
