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.

Why do you not update Awards for roses? Very frustrating to results stopping at 2001 or similar. If one is an exhibitor, the site has limited value

The site is run by unpaid volunteers (I'm not one of them), and they rely on the community to add information.

Savoy Hotel, a STAR after enduring its first winter including two straight weeks near -25. Greened up immediately and generously when temps allowed. Lost all canes above mulch line, as expected, but perfect below. Pruned up nicely and already has many small rose buds 5/23 (it has been a wretchedly cold spring). Bonus: maybe some of the Japanese beetles died?!

Savoy Hotel is a gorgeous, healthy winner. Fastest-establishing HT for me and floriferous. Braved 4 straight weeks of near biblical rain, bearing perfect flowers in first year, with only one of 6 plants developing black spot. Beautiful, deep blue-green, robust foliage. From Palatine in Canada, bare root.

Royal Philharmonic is basically a white version of this rose, but slightly better formed. I grow them side by side.
