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.

‘Trésor de Thorigny’ (Found, Bernard Boureau, Thorigny, France, early 1900’s) This very rare Climbing Hybrid Tea was discovered in the village of Thorigny (near Paris). Discoverer Bernard named the rose for the place of its discovery, introducing it through his Grisy-Suisnes nursery as a “Treasure” of Thorigny.’ This Treasure has not been available in the United States, but it is in the collection of the “Roseto Botanico Carla Fineschi,” in Italy’s Tuscan hills. ‘Trésor de Thorigny’ is a very vigorous climber, carrying a froth of fragrant, clustering near-white blooms.

TRÉSOR DE THORIGNY Réf. MG 205 Ce rosier, vous ne le trouverez dans aucun ouvrage. Un ami collectionneur, habitant Thorigny en Seine et Marne, avait découvert dans un friche voisin, voici quelques années déjà, un vieux rosier qui, abandonné, fleurissait de Juin jusqu'aux gelées. Je n'ai pu résister et l'ai greffé en pépinière. Cette petite merveille de 2 mètres de hauteur en palissé ou d'envergure en touffe libre se garnit d'un feuillage élégant vert tendre, très fourni et sain, pour accueillir des bouquets gracieux de pompons très doubles, blanc de lait éclairé de rose doux au centre... Le parfum, bien que léger, existe. Pour en faire profiter les amoureux du jardin, je devais lui donner un nom. Bien difficile à identifier et l'ami souhaitant garder l'anonymat, j'ai pensé Trésor, le mot n'est pas trop fort, et Thorigny, lieu de sa découverte. (Je ne désespère pas de trouver sa réelle identité !). (O). Illustré en 4ime couverture - Série M [80 francs]
