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.

Wilhelm Kordes II, 'Crimson Glory' (1935) This hybrid tea has velvety dark red blooms. Its excellent fragrance is a sure characteristic. She was the sensation in 1935, as there was not such a dark red hybrid tea with this fragrance at the time. Well double blooms with up to 30 petals develop from long, elegant buds. Growth wide bushy with slightly drooping blooms...50 to 70 cm.

Denise Anderson. Roses in a Cold Climate
My most robust HTs [in central Sweden] are 'Madame Ravary', Crimson Glory' (Kordes 1935) and 'Rose Gaujard'. These roses are survivors. Winning competitors against couch grass! No black spot, no mildew – not even on 'Crimson Glory' though it grows by a warm well. I love her. I can sit beside her for ages, gazing at the velvety, dark, red colour, and breathing in the intoxicating fragrance.
