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.

King of Hearts appears to be a cultivar that should be put on the endangered list. As you can see, there is no commercial vendor for this rose and only two private rosarians growing it. This is probably down to the point that it needs to be shared by cuttings to keep it going along. It is apparent from the photo, the awards it has garnered, and the first generation offspring of this rose that this is an important rose as well as beautiful and should not be lost to rosedom. I have luckily managed to get a single bush of it for Spring 2010 and eventually will try to propagate it and share new plants with rosarians that would be interested in having one of them so long as they too would be willing to share cuttings with others to keep this cultivar alive. I will post as having cuttings available here on HMF when my plant is big enough but it may be a good idea to contact me through the mail system here on HMF to let me know you are interested in cuttings of this rose.
