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.
Website/Catalog (2018) Page(s) 39. Includes photo(s). Yesterday & Red Yesterday A versatile and attractive compact shrub rose that was introduced by Harkness in the UK in 1973. It is still around today and we have been able to source propagation material. We are delighted to be able to re-introduce it as it posseses remarkable traits. It is continuous and repeat owering. The long lasting tiny rose red to lavender-pink, semi-double blooms are borne in sprays on long stems. The shiny leaves are very resistant to black spot. ‘Red Yesteday’ is a much darker, red sport of ‘Yesterday’ pictured above.
