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.

[Back-Translation of "A Persian Story" by Chris Warner, translated into Dutch by Els de Krijger]
.... in 1982 the price had dropped and I bought 'Tigris' (H. persica x 'Trier'). I was lucky enough to choose R. Baby Love ('SCRivluv') as a pollen parent. This rose by Len Scrivens is a descendant of 'Sweet Magic' and has excellent disease resistance. In 1986 I had about 20 seedlings from this crossing, nicknamed Tag, Tog, Tug, Tingle, Tang, Tiggle, etc. The healthiest of these was 'Tiggle', a ground cover with a beautiful bright blotch, but the bloom was already over halfway through the summer. I set up a growing project with six other amateur breeders, with the agreement that everything that came from Tiggle would first be offered to me again....Meanwhile [after 1988] he group was toiling with 'Tiggle', which led to nothing at all. 'Tiggle' behaved like a sterile mule and firmly refused to yield anything of any value. A few years later, Ronnie Rawlings, also an ARBA (Amateur Rose Breeders Association) member, asked me if he could join the project. I didn't have any 'Tiggle' plants left, so I gave him 'Tingle'.

....By now the Persica project was firing the imagination of mainstream breeders. Chris Warner crossed 'Tigris' with 'Baby Love' (raised from 'Sweet Magic') and was rewarded with as clutch of promising seedlings. One, with bronze flowers and a dark red eye, which flowered up to September, he codenamed CHEWtiggle. I think it was probably the first Persica to win an International award, at St. Albans in the 2001 Trials.
