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.

Flawless really surprised me in it's second season. The first year in the ground, the blooms were flimsy and didn't have much fragrance. After heavy deer damage and winter dieback, it only had one 6 inch cane left. I thought about shovel pruning but decided to give it a chance. The bush recovered quickly and participated in the spring show with 9-10 blooms on new, sturdy canes about 18-24 inches tall. And the blooms were much improved- light pink/white with bright, citrusy fragrance and a very pretty spiral form that revealed tons of petals as it slowly opened. The blooms were about 3.5-4 inches and looked great in the vase. Zone 6a, loam, own-root plant.

The seed parent of this new invention is a deep pink miniature rose, created in this breeding program in 1994, and registered as `BENmgolf` (not patented). It is sold in New Zealand and South America under the trade name of Perfection. The pollen parent of this new invention is a fragrant, orange-red, hybrid tea rose, registered as `Laguna` (code name `KORmulen`, not patented).


-from Google Pantents. Note that it also references a description of the otherwise unknown 'Perfection'

The bloom looks big in the pictures but I don't think it's 14"! Just doing a little proofing on the rose before I add it to my collection.

Oops, thanks. Always helpful when site guests point out errors on HMF.

It's still wrong. Now the description says 5.5 inches for a mini-flora. Not this one. Mine is never bigger than 3.5 inches.
