While logged in to HelpMeFind, I followed the link to donate $25 via PayPal. Then I signed out of HelpMeFind and signed back in, but my account did not reflect the new premium membership expiration date.
I noticed my HelpMeFind profile used a different e-mail address than I use with PayPal, so I updated that on my HelpMeFind profile and signed out and back in...but my profile still says "premium membership expired on 7 May 2024".

Why do the photos from the USA look like a completely different rose than the photos from Europe? Color, petal count, flower form, and flower size look different.

There was definitely a mix-up at some point. I first saw this rose in France, and it was completely different than the rose I later bought back here in the US. My plant came from Burlington Roses, and Burling told me it came from Ludwig's (back when Ludwig's daughter was in partnership with a rose grower in Arizona). After the partnership ended, they offered Burling some cuttings, and one of the roses was this Purple Lodge rose.
