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.
List customization using the above LIST OPTIONS feature is an advanced feature available to premium-membership members and sponsor listings.

Climbing into 'Baltimore Belle' is Clematis 'Sweet Summer Love', whose about-to-open buds can be seen here nestled among the rose's open blooms. Picture taken June 10, 2018.

'Baltimore Belle' was planted in 2014 at the base of an old Japanese Maple that I noticed was on its way out. Each year, sections of the tree would die, and I'd trim it back to substantial branches to serve as support for the rose. This year, the tree finally died, and will have its last twiggy-bits clipped back. Today -- June 10, 2018 -- 'Baltimore Belle' is truly glorious, despite the light rain, and will serve as the shade-provider for this bed, which was planted with things that appreciated the dappled shade previously provided by the now dead tree.
