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.

The Garden 51: 122 (Feb 13, 1897)

Rose Souvenir de Gabrielle Drevet (Tea). —This is a most beautiful Rose, but it is very little known. It was sent out by Guillot in 1884, a raiser who has given us such gems as Catherine Mermet, Gloire Lyonnaise, Christine de Noue, Comtesse de Nadaillac, Ernest Metz, Hon. E. Gifford, La France, Mme. Cusin, Mme. de Watteville, and Mme. Hoste. The Rose under notice has a good substantial petal. The flowers, which are produced on stiff stems, are of a salmon-white tint with bright rose centre, the base of petals coppery yellow. It is a large full flower, very sweet-scented, and can withstand rain better than the majority of Tea-scented varieties. Under glass it is very beautiful, especially if grown somewhat cool.
