Bonjour,
Le Polyantha 'Excelsior' est indiqué avoir été obtenu par Houry et commercialisé par Les grandes Roseraies du Val de Loire.
Cependant, la photo en couleur de la rose 'Excelsior' 1913 parue dans le calatogue des Grandes Roseraies de 1924 indique : "Photographie en couleurs par Léon Houry. Laboratoires des Grandes Roseraies du Val de Loire. Plaq. Autochrome Lumière. Objectif Lacour-Berthiot f: 4."
Cette rose n'a donc pas été obtenue par le photographe Houry.
Amicalement,
Daniel

La Revue Horticole de 1913 dit: MM. Houry et Cassegrain présentaient toute une série de R. polyanthas nouveaux peu différents des variétés déjà connues; citons : Candeur orléanaise, Excelsior, Le Matin, Radium, Triomphe Orléanais, etc.

Vous avez raison !
Je viens de voir qu'en 1911 Léon Houry pépiniériste s'est associé à René Cassegrain pour former les Grandes Roseraies du Val de la Loire. La photo présentant Excelsior en couleurs, dans leur catalogue de 1924, m'a induit en erreur, on pouvait penser qu'elle était de Houry .
Amicalement,
Daniel

I need to add a rose to this website. I am not getting the 'Add a Plant HMF' button.

Adding roses to HMF is restricted to ensure the accuracy of our database. If for now it's just a single rose, please provide us with the rose name and we will add it to HMF and link your account to the listing to fill in the details.

The rose is a hybrid tea, a sport of Ronald Reagan. Mr. Lockhart wants to name it 'Day Spring'.

We usually don’t assign names to sports until we know they are stable. Is this one growing away from the mother plant and how many bloom cycles have you seen that are stable. Otherwise there would be too durn many named sports out there. What is unique about this sport?

Mr. Lockhart has two bushes and has been growing the sport for a couple of years.

Hi, I'm trying to report a recurring error on help me find, in Safari none of my pop up windows populate with information. Safari Version 16.1 (18614.2.9.1.12), on a Mac. Works in Chrome.
Thanks,
Gera

We can address an issue much quicker with a specific example and listing the steps taken on your part. The goal is for us to exactly replicate the problem on our test server.

Also, please check you browser privacy and security settings to be sure you have not disallowed pop ups.

Hi, thank you for helping me troubleshoot. I checked, pop-ups are allowed.
A good example of the problem is clicking on photos of roses.. a white pop up window opens, and nothing loads in it. I've tried opening the link in a new tab; same thing.
Another example, I had to log on to Chrome to type this response to you; the 'REPLY' button opens a white pop up in Safari.
Kind regards,
Gera

Recently I've noticed that I have to log in, every time I return to the website. This is less user friendly. It was better when the site remembered my login. I've heard similar complaints with friends who also frequently visit helpmefind.com.
I was wondering if this is a temporary inconvenience.

We are looking into this and we anticipate installing a correction soon.
Unfortunately, concerted attacks on HMF necessitated some changes while we researched cause and resolution.

Even with the changes we instituted you should not need to log in each time. Could you please verify your browser's privacy and security settings to ensure you are not blocking "cookies" or deleting cookies (data) once you have left HMF.
HMF, like most websites, attempts to leave an identification cookie on your computer to facilitate automatic sign in when you return. This identification cookie a unique string of random characters and does NOT include any personal information about you or your computer and it's not shared with anyone - i.e. a tracking cookie pretty much ubiquitous on commercial websites. If this cookie is not saved, then HMF has no way to automatically sign you in.
Please also note, HMF does not have any "third party" cookies so the common browser option to avoid them is safe.

I've looked into it a bit further. I very often use HelpMeFind to quickly find roses. When I visit the site directly by typing the URL in the browser, my login is remembered and a cookie is set with max-age of a year.
However, when I go to the site via a Google search result, my cookie is cleared and I'm logged out.
I'm using Chrome vs 139.0.7258.128 on a Windows 10 OS.
I have the same issue on my Android phone.
You could simulate the issue by logging in on HMF. Close the tab. Open a new tab, browse to HMF by typing a URL. You will remain logged in. Close the tab.
Go to Google and type in i.e. helpmefind.com applejack. Click the search result. You will be logged out.

Wow... it doesn't get any better than that ! Thank you for taking the time to provide such a detailed and informed explanation.
As expected, this is a result of changes made for HMF security. Obviously, we will need to refine some of our recent changes.
