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.

‘La Jolla' Medium — Pink Remontant P3 H1
From the commercially important ' Baccara' to a rose which I suppose hardly earned anyone a halfpenny. It is self-indulgence to mention it, but there you are, I cannot be untrue to my great loves. 'La Jolla' is my idea of the perfect Hybrid Tea flower, a substantial bloom well rounded at the base, with the point of the centre high, yet admitting the eye to the folds of the petals. I can imagine Herbert Swim falling in love with this one, the colours so beautifully flushed and creamed together. The only trouble was that every blessed flower leaned down and looked at the soil. 0 what might have been! It was raised from 'Charlotte Armstrong' x 'Contrast' by Herbert Swim, and introduced in 1954.

Harry H. Hazlewood. The New Roses of 1954. La Jolla HT. (Swim, 1953). Long buds opening to fully double blooms of variable pink, yellow and rose shades. The first blooms suggested a resemblance to ‘Rotary Lyon’, but later flowers are much deeper. When fully expanded the portions of the petals exposed to full sunlight deepen to rich pink. A good exhibition garden variety and quite distinct. Named after a seaside resort in Southern California; pronounced La Hoya.
