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.

* Height needs updating. In Tasmania, Australia, a grafted plant of mine has reached 2m tall and 4m wide unpruned in its 4th spring.

* Excellent seed parent. Flowers easy to prep. Seeds set well and germinate freely. Seeds are large and easy to handle. Not much good as a pollen parent.

* Cuttings strike easily and own-root growth is as good as grafted growth.

* Without doubt the best of all the modern roses I've kept if you can overlook the flowers tending to brown on the edge of their petals; an opportunity for breeders to fix.

This is today. All one plant. Looks to have wich. breeding and given the seed parent is a climber, you can clearly see where it gets its habit from. I am sure that if I were to prune it hard, deadhead it, and give it a summer trim, that I could bully it into a more compact shape, but prefer it au naturel.

Gets a tiny amount of mildew in Autumn here (Tasmania, Australia). Otherwise very healthy. Doesn't set hips (yet), and I've been unable to find any pollen.

EDIT 7th. Jan. 2013: Tonight I tried to collect pollen again and this time I got LOADS.

EDIT 9th. September, 2015. Sets a reasonable amount of OP hips once mature. Gets large.
