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 new rose combines the good qualities of the ramblers, to which class it belongs, with the charm and beauty of the wild roses. The flowers are a delicate pink, shading to white at the stamens. The blooms are borne in large clusters, as many as seventy-five single specimens have been found in one cluster. The flowers remain in good condition for almost three weeks - a great advantage over some of the ramblers. When in full bloom a plant resembles a huge bouquet of pink roses. The growth of the plant is remarkably vigorous, the shoots soon covering an arch or trellis with a dense mass of ivy-like, dark green foliage that resists attacks of mildew and insects.
The plants are perfectly hardy, and can be put in the most exposed places with an assurance of flowers.
Strong plants $1 each, $10 per dozen; extra-strong plants, $1.50 each
