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.

Regarding rosa 'Stars 'N' Stripes', bred by Ralph Moore

According to HelpMeFind United States - Patent No: PP 4,029 on 1 Apr 1976

but if you view USPTO Patent information, the patent date is 29 March 1977.

1 Apr 1976 is the patent application filing date.

I am not an expert on these issues - please let me know if I am incorrect in my observation.

Thank you.

Judy Lee

The description states that this rose is heavily mossed, which it most definitely isn't!!

Thanks Salix. There is no mention of moss either in the Patent or the refs. We've deleted that misleading sentence and we thank you for your correction.

The original post was

For some reason, instead of deleting the duplicate post, it deleted the original. This has happened before. I think it is a bug.

This is a really beautiful miniature rose. Without pruning it grew way over 36 inches, which I've read isn't rare, but it should be cut back because growing that tall reduces bloom. I found it always laden with red and white striped flowers. I never had a problem with it, not even black spot, until I moved it from a full sun (8 hours) to a partial sun (5 hours) location, I then got one good flush and then it just died. My fault, I wish I'd left well enough alone.
