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.

p270. ‘Glenara’, Modern, large-flowered hybrid tea. Deep pink. Repeat-flowering. After the death of Alister Clark, this rose which he raised was introduced through the National Rose Society of Victoria, and named after his home. It produces flower stems 24 in (60cm) in length bearing large semi-double blooms of deep rosy pink, each petal reflexing away from the center and furling to a point, revealing attractive golden stamens. The flowers are lightly scented and maintain an excellent continuity of flower through summer and autumn. In the garden this makes a useful large bush, or it can be trained against a strong support to form a pillar. The plant is vigorous, with a bushy, upright habit, and is furnished with large leathery leaves. Zones 5-9. Clark, Australia, 1951. Parentage unknown.
