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.

‘Gaspard Monge’, ..... a centifolia......was bred by Monsieur Robert in 1854. A blend of pinks, this rose retains the typical cabbage shape until completely open, when it reveals a yellow eye. This is one of the roses correctly labeled which Mottisfont received in the 1980s from Sangerhausen among the latter’s many incorrectly labeled roses. The rose is named for Comte de Peluse, French mathematician who invented both descriptive and differential geometry and helped found Ecole Polytechnique. An atheist and a pro-Revolutionary, Monge (1746-1818) traveled with Napoleon on his Egyptian campaign. After Napoleon’s waterloo, all Monge’s titles and honors were stripped from him.

"Mrs Something", maybe Gaspard Monge. See next page. Photo: Ed.
p9. *Ed: This is the name under which it is grown in the UK, but in Germany it is disputed. Spring-only, scented, suckering, can ball, will climb through other plants. In Australia it is a survivor in every state, even in a derelict garden at ‘Balladonia’ station on the edge of the Nullarbor (annual rainfall 263mm). Its many study names include “Mrs Something” (see the autumn, winter and spring HRIA Journal issues of 2011; photo page 7).
