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.

E.F. Allen, Awards to Rose Seedlings in Great Britain in 1989. 
A Gold Medal and President's International Trophy were awarded to 'Sweet Symphonie', MEIbarke, a dwarf cluster flower by Meilland (MEIgurami x 'Magic Carrousel'). This had earlier won a Trial Ground Certificate in late 1988. It is almost scentless but the pale pink double flowers are most attractive and it has shown very good rain resistance. I have always marked it highly. During the flowering season members of the public were invited to vote for the three seedlings which gave them the most pleasure at the time of their visit. Many visitors took advantage of this and I can vouch for the fact that not a few took considerable trouble with this pleasant task. In this enthusiastic forum 'Sweet Symphonie took 10th place.
