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.

Creamy, pointed buds open to pure white, dainty blooms that flower profusely in unusual, cone-shaped, hydrangea-like clusters on a compact, rounded bush. The tiny, sparkling white petals set against dark green, glossy foliage grow quickly to become the perfect garden accent in mixed beds. Excellent vigor, reblooming and disease resistance.

What I'd really like to know from Jackson & Perkins is a classification for this rose. Shrub? Miniature? Mini-flora? Thanks!

It's a shrub, but it definitely has the gene for miniaturization. In essence, it's a miniature, perpetual-blooming, non-rambling version of Rosa wichurana.

It has absolutely no visual appeal beyond "cute", but it's a good rose on its own merit.

In general, I've never expected much from J & P with respect to disease resistance--but Snowcone has proved an exception. It has been healthy for 4 summers--even avoiding the ravages of leafspot that plague so many roses in my climate. It has remained essentially clean and has made it through 3 winters in Z 3B (hopefully soon to be 4 winters if the snow ever melts) with no protection other than 2 inches of wood mulch in the fall.

"The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of a shrub rose plant named `JACwipet` which was originated by me by crossing the variety `NOAtraum` (U.S. Plant Pat. No.7,282), with an unnamed white shrub seedling (not patented) (`POULcov` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,648).times.`POULcat` (not patented))."
