'Salmon Spray' rose Reviews & Comments
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.

Having just put a few references in the 1923 'Salmon Spray' page, I am astounded that it has not yet re-surfaced in Australia. It was a well-known and famous rose and distributed throughout the world. Today it is growing in overseas gardens such as the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Carla Fineschki Foundation Rose Garden, Cranford Rose Garden, San Jose Heritage Rose Garden, Sangerhausen and Lisa’s Garden in Georgia, USA.

Australians - keep your eyes peeled for an old, tall salmon poly/flori with some carmine on the reverse. That's a pretty good description. There is a good photograph in the files too. And the references, progressing from the oldest up to the new, make fascinating reading.

If anyone has any more photographs of this rose, they too would be most helpful.
