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.

‘Chevy Chase’ = Grimpant liane.. petites fleurs cramoisi sombre, serrées en gros bouquets… rosette à quartiers… pousses vigoureuses, capables de croître de 4m50 en une saison, raides et malaisées à palisser. La pleine floraison est un éblouissement, mais la suppression des fleurs fanées s’impose sitôt le feu d’artifice achevé, et ce rosier exigeant réclame des tailles attentives pour donner le meilleur de lui-même… tiges armées d’aiguillons crochus… feuillage dense, vert clair, à nervures marquées… sensible à la rouille… Hansen, US, 1939.

p76 Chevy Chase (1939). "Finest of the Ramblers", it suggests an improved 'Crimson Rambler' with lovely, small, dark crimson, very double (60 to 70 petals) flowers, singly or in clusters of 10 to 20 on short stems. Profuse bloom comes May into June, and the color changes with age but not unpleasantly. The soft smooth, small leaves are very different from those on 'Dorothy Perkins'. It is practically mildew-proof.

However , it is only proper to say that there is now a rose of the same color that is not a leper , the Variety Chevy Chase , originated by N. J. Hansen at Dr. Whitman Cross's home in Chevy Chase , Maryland .
