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.

*** Growing near Houston, TX: sub tropical zone 9a. Mild winters, hot, extremely humid summers that last half the year. No spray garden. ***

Purchased from Angel Gardens 2011.

Update Oct 2012- Not a vigorous grower (one cane wonder). Had it in the garden, but it just sort of languished there, so now it's back in a pot (3 gallon) for now. I may find a better spot for it. Flowers open well and are fragrant and pretty.

April 2013- STILL a one-caned wonder, but is healthy so I've transplanted it into a 20 gallon pot. Probably the most highly fragrant rose in my garden.

5/24/2014 - Planted in new garden.

9/22/2015- no longer a one caned wonder. I had to stake it though because the base isn't wide enough yet to support all the top growth. Needs to be pruned. Right now it is about 4x3 (though some of the width is due to the canes bending over).

4/2016- gave it a good pruning, and it is growing back bushier. This is one of my favorites. The scent is amazing, and it's a good bloomer. I bought another from reagans

4/10/2021- My grafted plant died, but my "little" own root is still going strong. I really love this rose. Thus plant is one that needs a good hard prune in the spring, otherwise the long canes tend to sort of flop. I wouldn't call Liv Tyler a climbing rose, but she can be unruly.
