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.
Newsletter (Nov 2014) Page(s) 22. Includes photo(s). ‘Lady Stuart’ is a silvery blush-pink hybrid china that ages to white. The breeder may have been Laffay, but Vibert introduced it by 1833. A spinosissima, a centifolia, and a hybrid perpetual also go by this name. In fact, the photos on HelpMeFind.com of the hybrid perpetual look like the hybrid china at Mottisfont. I suspect them to be the same rose....The rose seems to have been named for Lady Stuart de Rothesay, who in 1816 married Lord Charles Stuart, First Baron Stuart de Rothesay.
