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.

‘Charmian’: Arbuste… fleurit avec tant d’abandon que ses rameaux ploient souvent jusqu’au sol sous le poids des fleurs. Grandes et pleines, d’un rose opulent, elles s’ouvrent en rosettes plates, puis se creusent légèrement à maturité. Le feuillage vert franc et satiné est exempt de maladies. Avec son port souple, ‘Charmian’ excelle à former de charmants coussins dans une bordure, ou à jouer les semi-grimpants sur un muret ou une clôture peu elevée. Austin, UK, 1982.

Page 86: Charmian Description and cultivation... of all the English Roses, this one comes the closest to being a true climber... deep pink flowers that open flat with a wonderful, heady, Old Rose fragrance... Training works for this rose [don't be afraid to prune it!!!]... Charmian was Cleopatra's faithful attendant in Antony and Cleopatra. After Cleopatra's death, Charmian applies the asp to her own breast just as Octavius's guards enter the tomb...
