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.

R. fraxinifolia (Bork.): stems armed with scattered bristly prickles, or at length unarmed; the branches strict, naked, somewhat glaucous ; leaflets 5–7, oval, not shining, sharply and rather coarsely serrate, slightly hairy beneath, or glabrous; stipules dilated, sometimes serrulate and glandular; flowers corymbose, on short glabrous peduncles ; segments of the calyx a little glandular, appendiculate, entire ; the tube glabrous and a little glaucous; fruit (large, red) ovoid, crowned with the persistent calyx-segments.“ Bork. holz. 301"; Seringe, l. c. (excl. α. blanda); Bot. reg. t. 458; Hook. ! fl. Bor.-Am. 1. p. 199. R. megacarpa, Nutt. mss.
Oregon, near the sea, Menzies! Dr. Scouler! Nuttall. -This is doubtless distinct from R. blanda, and is, we suspect, confined to the Pacific coast. The petioles in the younger shoots are sometimes a little prickly, and the teeth of the leaflets serrulate.-To this species apparently belongs the Rosa blanda ? Hook. f. Arn. bot. Beechey, suppl. p. 338, from California ; but the R. Californica indicated by Chamisso & Schlechtendal is probably different.
