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.

Breathless is a beautiful, deep pink-colored rose with a strong, fresh fragrance. Its bush produces single blooms on long stems with healthy foliage. I'm sorry it does not appear to be commercially produced any more.

I am still looking to obtain more plants of this rose for my garden. Why can't some grower take the initative and make propagation of this variety in order to make sales? This plant is a very strong, clean, upright type with wonderful fragrance. In desperation I am attempting my own propagation from many cuttings right now.

Should someone have this plant available in there nursery please let me know? I've been searching for a year now.

Best regards,
Eugene J. Haas

Any luck rooting your cuttings? How is the flower production? I can't belive this magnificent rose is so hard to fined either.

The following information was included in the patent for Breathless regarding its parentage.

"large glossy foliage of the (unnamed) female white flowered parent combined with the very large flower size and fragrance of the male parent," (Chrysler Imperial)

Breathless is one of the most gorgeous roses I have ever seen, if not THE most. My best friend, who was a very heavy feeder and expert roasrian from Santa Monica grew it in the 90's. It was a big plant with a huge, deep pink frangrant blooms but he never could coax too blooms out of the plant and they would often fry on hotter days even in the mild beach climate.
