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.

Descriptive List of Chinese Peonies
Cathedral. (Origin unknown.) 8.1.
Japanese type; large; midseason. Vivid dark rose-pink guard petals, with narrow, lighter edges; compact center of long, pale pink petaloids with pointed tips and yellow at the base; reddish stigmas; slightly fragrant. Height 30 inches; growth medium; free-blooming. foliage dark green.
This variety is also catalogued as Hana-no-sato. While generally admitted to be of Japanese Type, there are no vestiges of anthers on the central petals which are rather "petaloids" than "staminoids". This would make it Anemone Type strictly speaking, but many other Japs have similar character so it is extremely difficult to be absolutely consistent in this matter.
"In fully developed flowers, the petaloids are very rarely white or seem so when seen against the vivid dark rose-pink guard petals. While not a high-grade Jap it is a very striking one in the garden"—Fewkes.

Japanese Peonies: The Japanese peonies resemble the single peonies in that they have wide guard petals but instead of a tuft of pollen bearing stamens in the center they have a tuft of narrow petaloids.
Cathedral. Deep pink petals, stamens partly transformed making a soft creamy yellow center. Odd and beautiful. Each $2.00
