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.

MM. Mack et fils, de Catterick (Angleterre), emploient sur une grande échelle comme sujets pour greffer leurs variétés de roses, le rosier Napoléon qui leur a été envoyé de France il y a plus de 25 ans. Ce rosier qui prend très-facilement de bouture, est très-utile pour greffer les roses thé: du reste toutes les variétés de roses prennent bien dessus.
Mr. Mack and sons of Catterick, England, use on a large scale for grafting their rose varieties, the rose, Napoleon, which they received from France more than 25 years ago. This sort, which takes grafts very well, is very useful for budding Tea Roses; in fact all varieties of roses do well on this stock.
