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.

Initial post 13 JUN 18 by Patricia Routley
Was the florists rose prior to the 1980's, Robichon's 1955 Bingo?
I have this 1980 Australian Rose Annual reference I need to place:

Dr. A. S. Thomas. Rosae et Cetera.
p21. 'Bingo' and 'Sonia' are grown in greatest numbers in Israel for the cutflower trade at present. p25. We saw few roses in historic Avignon. They were all in shops and all were 'Sonia' and 'Visa' and 'Bingo'
p26. [in France] No one could explain to me why Bingo (orange red) sells so well from Israel
p27. In the millions of roses sent to Aalsmere by Israel, 'Sonia' predominates, of course, followed by 'Bingo', 'Visa', 'Minuette' and 'Korgold'.
