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.

This is a NICE rose. If it isn't the same parentage as MEDALLION and GOLDEN GATE then it is close, one of the J&P/Warriner clan from the mid-70's that got introduced more or less on the fact the bloom can be HUGE (riding the First Prize craze)............the color is fresh and nice, more pink than apricot but very lovely and the foliage is dark and big and also lovely............it does get blackspot in humidity. It isn't as apricot as Apricot Nectar (older) or Marilyn Monroe (newer) and the big bloom can be floppy..............probably one for the collector I realize as I type this...........not at all a BAD rose, actually a GOOD rose. A very 70's rose.

The height of this rose is closer to 6' than 3' in the southeast, or, it is even taller if not pruned back regularly

It was a good 6'+ in my Southern California garden, too, since I didn't prune it hard.
