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.

Nos confrères, MM. Alexandre Dickson et Sons, rosiéristes, à Newtownards (Angleterre), vont mettre au commerce, en juin courant (1912), les nouveautés ci-après : C. W. COWAN (Hybride de Thé). C'est une nouveauté très bien accueillie; sa couleur est rouge cerise chaud; les fleurs sont larges, bien pleines et imbriquées, produites continuellement en grande profusion; les pétales sont d'une substance épaisse, donce et ronde, la végétation est vigoureuse, le rosier branchu. Elle est considérée, par les connaisseurs, comme étant très supérieure à Marquise Litta, sous beaucoup de rapports. La végétation est plus vigoureuse, les pétales sont aussi longs et les fleurs plus grandes. Egalement bonne pour l'exposition et le jardin; sentant délicieusement le Thé.
