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.
Book (1968) Page(s) 42. John P. Gover, Christchurch. Among the sports the writer has observed in his garden over the years has been a climbing shoot on a bush 'Golden Dawn'....the first example was already in commerce...
Book (1947) Page(s) 81. Mr. A. Lee, South Auckland. N.Z. Others that do well are: .... and Mrs. Violet Ewen.
Book (1941) p97. Editor [T. A. Stewart] Roses of New Zealand. 1939. Mrs. Violet Ewin, H.T., introduced by H. J. Cutler and Sons, a sport from Golden Dawn; it is in the colour class of Korovo, but very distinct.
p113. Mr. Frank Mason, New Zealand Roses. Mrs. Violet Ewen is a sport from Golden Dawn and has more salmon in it than Queensland Beauty. It is a splendid grower and free bloomer.
Book (1940) Page(s) 101. S. R. Bird. Roses and Shows in New Zealand. The coppery salmon sport of Golden Dawn, called Mrs. Violet Ewen (Cutler and Son Ltd., 1939), was seen to advantage, and it would be unfair to this Rose not to say that it is outstanding.
Book (1939) Page(s) 101. S. R. Bird. Notes from Auckland. Mrs. Violet Ewen, from Golden Dawn, raised in Auckland, has pleased all callers. It is a rich, salmon-pink, of more refined shape and size than Golden Dawn, and outstanding in every way.
Book (1938) Page(s) 98. S.R. Bird. Auckland Roses, NZ. The local sport of Golden Dawn has made a fine display this season, and the colour is a rich coppery pink of a different shade from the excellent Queensland Beauty.
Book (1937) Page(s) 118. S. R. Bird. Some Auckland Rose Notes. Queensland Beauty, the pink sport of Golden Dawn, should receive a warm welcome. Golden Dawn sported to a splendid coppery pink in Auckland last spring, and if this proves sufficiently distinct from Queensland Beauty it will be keenly sought after.
