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.

We do not have ANY photos of this Nursery!

If you have an appropriate photo, please share it with HelpMeFind - see the UPLOAD PHOTO button on the Photos tab.

Please do not upload someone else's photos without their permission. Thanks!

Philipp Franz Balthasar von Siebold (February 17, 1796 Würzburg - October 18, 1866), German physician, introduced Western medicine to Japan and provided the West with accounts of Japan. Von Siebold was also the editor of the Fauna Japonica. He lived in Japan 1823-29 and 1859-62.
[From The Book of Tree Peonies, by Gian Lupo Osti, p. 21:] the first significant importations [of tree peonies] from Japan were in 1844, when P.F. von Siebold shipped to the Krelage nursery in Holland forty-two varieties... only a few of these have survived...
