    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.

    p1. Front cover: ‘Gladsome’. This Alister Clark rambler with multiflora parentage looks not unlike ‘Kew Rambler’, and flowers fairly late in the season. Several sources give its introduction date as 1937. Little is known about it. Tid Alston (whose parents were good friends of the Clarks) says that she can remember it always being in their Oaklands garden, even before she could put a name to it. John Nieuwesteeg says that he obtained the rose from Robert Peace, who in turn received it in the form of cuttings (like rootstock material) from Sam Gough of South Morang, who was a keen propagator of roses.

    p270 ‘Gladsome’. Modern. Rambler. Medium pink. This lovely Rambler bears clusters of bright pink, single blooms that look very attractive against the abundant, mid-green foliage. Each bloom has a central boss of golden yellow stamens, and the petals are almost white at their bases. ‘Gladsome’ is a useful variety for disguising unattractive walls or fences, alternatively, it can be trained as a pillar rose. Zones 5-9. Clark, Australia, 1937. Parentage unknown.
