'Annie Davidson' rose Description
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.

Breeder's notes:
Annie is a personal friend of mine, and I hope this rose brings her smile after smile. In her words......"This rose was created to commemorate a series of perfect happenings - marriage to a wonderful guy, single lung transplantation in 1997, a milestone birthday, AND to consummate my love of roses, this beautiful pink/mauve speciman makes her debut in the Spring of 2010. Many thanks to our good friend Mardy Duncan for planting the idea and for my husband Peter who ran with it. I, and I hope many others, will enjoy "Annie Davidson" blooms forever. "
