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.

I've had this rose since April 2008 (5-g. can), and it produced a few gorgeous blooms at first (see my picture on HMF). Since then, I've had nothing but long canes with no blooms, and they don't appear to be rootstock and more like blindshoots or canes of a climbing rose. Has anyone else had this experience?	REPLY

Yes, I'm having the same problem. Long, spindly blind shoots. And it's not rose midge - I know what that looks like. Mine is own-root, so it can't be reversion to root stock. A few blooms were quite spectacular, but overall a real dud. Getting blackspot too. Shovel pruning tomorrow.	REPLY

I finally shovel pruned Sebastian Kneipp a few months ago. When I inspected it, it seemed to be overcome on one side with what looked like huge, thick suckers from around the bud union, not from farther below. Weirdest thing I've ever seen and may have been just a rootstock problem which came out higher on the bud union than I've ever seen before. I've had only one other rose that put out so many blind shoots, and that was Polka (also on rootstock). I finally got lots of productive canes with lots of blooms after whacking back the blind shoots for two seasons, but it took about 5 years to get to that point. I'm glad I waited and didn't SP that one! I won't miss Sebastian Kneipp unless it turns out it has the same weird growth habit as Polka and requires a number of years to do its thing.
