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.

This rose has died at L'Hay, The Guillot form is incorrect. Etienne Bouret's picture was taken before it died

Does it still exist in Gap-Charance and is it the original there? It would be important to safeguard copies if its is.

I don't Know, it would be good if they had received their plant from L'Hay prior to 2006. At least we have Etiennes picture for ID.

unfortunately, I have just received this from Gap-Charence: "Suite à votre demande qui m’est parvenu par le Conservatoire Botanique National Alpin concernant la rose « Alix Reusel » nous ne pouvons donner suite, cette variété ayant disparu de notre collection."

This shows how important it is to have rare roses planted in several gardens outside the official rosaries.

Agree. If every private gardener took it upon themselves to safeguard just one rare old rose, with provenance, and which does well in your area, the losses will be greatly minimised in the future. The rose itself will give you your reward.
