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.

Combined Rose List is correct in saying that Starry Night is a synonym for Anita Pereire.

In the RHS listings 'Starry Night' is 'Orawichkay' and 'Anita Pereire' is 'Orawidu'. There are sites which state they are synonymous, but others who keep them separate. A rose cannot (should not) be called both Orawichkay and Orawidu.
Oradiwu, on the other hand, seems to point to a parentage Di(ckson) and w(ich)u(rana), like 'Starry Night'. Assuming Orard did not cheat and recycle an existing rose for whatever reason (e.g. to receive a US Patent 6 years after first introduction??), these two roses could also be siblings.

Does anyone know if this rose does well in a shady north facing side of the house? (with no trees). Thanks.

The Montreal Botanical Garden recommends this rose as resistant to blackspot, powdery mildew, and rust:
