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.

My tree is in a pot and probably 4' tall now. I live in zone 6 where we get below freezing. I am worried b/c my tree's leaves are turning brown and the main "stalk" has a very dark like color. What can I do to protect this tree to keep fo the future?

The top of your tree rose is the "bud union" and it must be protected from the cold of zone 6. Winter protect it in some way. There are different methods to do this, you may choose to bury the entire plant in a trench below ground and unearth it every spring, or you may want to bring it in to an unheated 3 season room/garage (this requires you to continue to moniter its water needs), or you could pack the "bud union" with a dry mulch and wrap with burlap. Good luck.
