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.

Regarding the last line but one on the description page, I think it's certain that this rose was introduced in 1946. Tantau themselves say so on their website, and so does the plate at Rosarium Uetersen, where the Tantau nursery is nearby.

"Height of 31" to 5'", as the description says, may be on the conservative side for this rose. We inherited a row of 30+ year old Märchenland when we bought the house a couple of years ago and they were closer to 7'. I have since removed all but one (with so many roses out there, who wants nine of the same sort in a really tiny garden?) and pruned that one almost to the ground in Spring 2011. It's already back to 5' (and also 5' wide btw). This can be an imposing shrub if left to grow.

Mine grows easily to 5' or 6'; so I would agree that is a more realistic size.
