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.

Andrew Ross, SA.   My Top Australian Bred Roses.
A Passionate Gardener  In so many roses apricot/orange shades seem to fade in our hot Australian sun. This variety has a toughness of colour which does not change much in summer. The flowers are produced singly on long stems in large quantities, yet also quick to repeat given plenty of colour right throughout the flowering season. Has a light fragrance, and possesses good health for an apricot. As a standard it gives good performance. Bred by George Thomson.

‘A Passionate Gardener’ TM. (Tompassion). New 2010. A special rose for every garden lover. In shades of salmon to apricot-pink the highly fragrant blooms are large and ruffled. It is long flowering, healthy, and very hardy plant which copes well in extreme sun. It is also a good cut flower and makes a good garden display, on a healthy bush 1.5 metres tall. Here is another outstanding Australian-bred rose by George Thomson.
