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.

Ace of Diamonds has been a blooming fool for us. We planted it in 2000 and it got established quickly. AoD doesn't get very tall for us, about 18 inches tall. It gets 3+ feet wide. We don't grow roses in pots but I always wonder about suggesting AoD for folks that ask about minis that would do well in a hanging pot. AoD sprawls all over the area where it is planted seems like it would be a good candidate for a cascading rose. AoD has 60 - 100 blooms per flush. Blooms open pretty fast and fade in strong sun. Fragrance is almost strong.


Blackspot is not a problem here. I have never noticed any powdery mildew on AoD. I'm a fragrant red nut and don't understand why this rascal isn't one of my favorites. AoD performs well enough to be on the top 5 list.
