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.

Excerpt of a Robert Simonet letter to Percy Wright. August 19/1966.

"On checking my records of the parentage of roses, I was surprised at the very fair results I have been getting from my use of Skinners 'Suzanne' rose as a pollen parent on HTs. Although most of these seedlings show considerable kill-back, they send out strong canes from the base and these flower in clusters at their tips, in tones of pink, but do so later than the HTs."

Only one of these selections survives - 'Red Dawn' x 'Suzanne', which Dr. Felicitas Svejda at the Ottawa Central Experimental Farm used to develop nearly all her Explorer Rosa kordesii cultivars.
