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.

('Portmeiran') Named for the village of Portmeirion in Wales, one of the most beautiful and quaint villages in the world. It is a Mediterranean style village with tile-roofed buildings unlike anywhere else in the British Isles. Noel Coward penned "Blithe Spirit" while staying there. The rose was introduced by Jensen of Germany and they changed the spelling of the name. 'Portmeirion' is correct. The rose has fully double, old-fashioned blooms of a beautiful shade [of] … frosted pink. The flowers are produced on a moderately vigorous bush with grey-green foliage. Ideal for the smaller garden or in pots. (1988)
