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.

Book (1977) Page(s) 85. Roy and Heather Rumsey, NSW. New Roses. Perfume Delight (Weeks). A very hardy, free flowering rose, as are all A.A.R.S. winners, though most of them lack form as we look for it. A fairly deep but attractive pink, double flowers and, of course, a very nice fragrance.
Book (1974) Page(s) 1. Includes photo(s). Perfume Delight Perfume is not the only asset of this 1974 AARS winner, the only Hybrid Tea chosen for 1974. The vigorous well-branched, medium tall plant is covered with large, deep green, leathery leaves that blanket the strong, stiff canes. First appearing as long, pointed, classic tea rose buds on long, strong stems, the true clear, deep pink blooms gradually unfold to high-centered beauties which hold well as cut flowers. It’s real effectiveness, however, is in plantings where its fragrance can greet and charm visitors and passersby. ‘Perfume Delight’ was hybridized by Swim and Weeks and introduced by the Conard-Pyle Co
