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.

Hybrid Teas.  Britannia  (Frycalm) 1998 A richness of colour that really sparkles, blending and suffusing, first apricot and gold, then as the flower opens, a refreshing nectarine and orange. Perfectly formed, the flowers have a quality and style all of their own.They are entirely dependable in all weathers and are carried with the profusion of a floribunda on a free branching bush of medium size. A variety which has proved to be extremely reliable, with excellent health and a good fragrance.  Awarded a Silver Medal in Glasgow 2001.  Height approx. 75cm.
