'Savamoon' 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.

Assignee: Nor'East Miniature Roses (Arroyo Grande, CA)
....created by myself under controlled conditions in a greenhouse in Rowley, Mass., in 1998, by crossing `SEArodney`, not patented, as seed parent, and unnamed, an unintroduced seedling created by this same breeding program, as pollen parent.
Notes:
The name says it all - the color and fragrance or romance. A highly fragrant miniflora with clusters of very pale lavender buds that open to double white blossoms, with maybe a hint of lavender in the center. The flowers measure 2.5 to 3 inches across, so it will be a big hit in your neighborhood. This plant is an upright grower and has soft matte green foliage.
