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.

Description. Those who find 'Elizabeth of Glamis' difficult to grow have an excellent alternative in this variety. The colour is almost the same, while as far as fragrance and bedding suitability are concerned, 'Fragrant Delight' is much to be preferred.

E. F. Allen, Awards To New Rose Seedlings In Great Britain In 1976. 
The Henry Edland Medal for Fragrance and a Trial Ground Certificate were given to TG. No. 3183, a vigorous and unnamed floribunda, by W. E. Tysterman of Wisbech, ('Chanelle' x 'Whisky Mac'). The pretty flowers have ten petals and are coloured a coppery salmon blend, somewhat reminiscent of those of 'Elizabeth of Glamis'. The sweet, fresh scent is pleasing and reliable.
Footnote:  T.G.No 3183 (H.E Medal) has been called 'Fragrant Delight'.
