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.

‘Ambridge Rose’/AUSwonder: Arbuste - tons abricot, remontant. ...bouquets de fleurs rondes et bien pleines, aux pétales étroitement imbriqués… éclosent en coupe, puis s’évasent en rosettes plutôt lâches, le coloris passant de l’abricot pur à un rose abricoté pâlissant sur les bords. La végétation est basse, buissonnante et dressée, le feuillage vert sombre et légèrement brillant. Le nom de ce rosier est un clin d’oeil à une émission radiophonique fort appréciée des Britanniques, “The Archers” mettant en scène le milieu rural anglais. A la demande de la BBC, un épisode à l’émission fit dialoguer l’un des personnages avec l’obtenteur du rosier, lors d’une visite à l’exposition floral de Chelsea. Austin, UK, 1990.
