'CHRisgood' rose Description
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.

A new and distinct variety of Floribunda rose plant is provided which
abundantly forms double flat cup-shaped bright multi-colored blossoms. The
blossoms display a distinctive random mixture of streaks and spots of red,
orange, and yellow on the upper petal surfaces. The plant exhibits an
upright bushy growth habit. The foliage is medium to dark green and
semi-glossy and contrasts nicely with the multi-colored blossoms. The new
variety is particularly well suited for growing as attractive
ornamentation in an informal garden setting.
