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.

Quite large, deeply cupped flowers, blending deep pink, magenta and red - the outer petals tending towards light purple, with an almost silvery quality.  There is a delicious Tea and Old Rose fragrance, with intriguing hints of cedar wood.  It makes an attractive, bushy shrub.  Named after John Milton's poem, Lycidas, to mark the 400th anniversary of his birth.  David Austin, 2008.

We were asked by The Friends of Milton's Cottage to name this rose to mark the 400th anniversary of the birth of the poet John Milton.  ‘Lycidas’ is one of the finest short poems in the English language.  Interestingly, it was Milton who introduced the word ‘fragrance’ into the English language.
