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.

R. Marion Hatton. The World's Novelties.
Two or three years ago I mentioned Daylight, shapely bloom of warm flesh with pink and gold tints. It was originated by Neils J. Hansen in the garden of Dr. Cross, at Chevy Chase, Maryland. Plants have been slow in developing, but last year the fragrant, 40-petalled flowers stood heads above most of the imported Novelties appearing since, and it looks good.

R. Marion Hatton. New Roses in America.
Dr. Whitman Cross has three which are quite nice, but not important. Daylight has 40 petals of pale flesh with pink and gold tints. It is fragrant, and some of the blooms were nicely formed, but there were not enough of them.
