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.

this rose is a light lilac pink.Since when does pink especially pale pink become red.This is both deceptive and very misleading to describe something as being other than it truly is.this is tru of a large number of other rose colour describitions here .It is good practice to download the colour palettes from wikipedia and use them as rule for accuracy.

I suggest you read the authorities. Every one describes this species as red, including Flora of China. There are several explanations for the fact that a rose in commerce under this name may have pale pink blooms. Erroneous identification and hybridity are two explanations.
