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.

Who is HGTV please Michael? Is there a website?
[later edit - found it. Thanks anyway]

I am having the same difficulty in Australia with renamed roses. This secrecy brings, to my mind at least, a sense of mistrust on those who market modern roses.

Its an America, and possibly International????, TV station for home and garden. Home and Garden Television.

Yeah, I think the renaming business is bonkers. Its hard enough to educate the public... :[

'Greta's Got This' looks like it might be derived from Scarlet Meidiland.

Yeah, I imagine the parentage is similar to Ruby Meidiland, but RM is probably a better rose.

You've gotta love the creative naming of those that begin with BOS.

BOS is probably W. E. (Bill) Bossom (from the UK).

But the rest of those codes are for the record book. Here's what I suspect:

(ROS)PCHSNG=peach single
(ROS)RDSNG=red single
(ROS)YSNG=yellow single

In what zones will it grow? I do not see any indication.

We've added Zones 5a as per the reference.
The patent says "Hardiness: Survived the last three winters in The Netherlands."

Thank you so much for letting me know, Patricia. I live in Old Town, Maine, zone 5a supposedly, though I have had trouble with roses classified as zone 4, so I probably should not chance Caroline!
