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.

Mallerin se devait encore de dédier une de ses plus; belles roses à la célèbre bienfaitrice de l'Horticulture mondiale, créatrice du prix « Harding » dont Mme P.-S. du Pont fut la lauréate. Donc, la meilleure de ses roses jaunes parmi celles aux essais aux Etats-Unis, fut choisie là-bas pour porter le nom d'Alice Harding. Grande admiratrice de toutes les fleurs, écrivain américain réputée, femme de l'un des plus grands avocats d'Amérique spécialisé surtout dans les questions internationales, elle fut encore le mécène regretté de la Société d'Horticulture de France à qui elle remettait, presque chaque année, un prix de 100 dollars pour récompenser la plus belle obtention, parmi les espèces florales. Sa rose fut cultivée par les grandes maisons américaines en quantités importantes, comme l'imposait d'ailleurs la valeur de la variété

Alice Harding, from Mallerin, France, a cross of Mrs. Pierre S. Dupont and Claudius Pernet, has splendid form, three and a half to four inch flowers of 35 petals, and a rich yellow colour which lasts. It is my choice for the best yellow Rose of to-day.
