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.

Doug Hayne,  My Top Australian Bred Roses.
Love’s Gift​​​​​​​ (George Thomson) A tough disease resistant shrub, 'Love's Gift' loves Australia's hot climate. This vigorous rose is a truly spectacular sight when in full flower: The ivory-white petals are aged with deep pink that increases in depth to red as the flower is exposed to more sunlight - the hotter the day the richer of the colour. In recent years the Thomson bred rose has been a prolific winner on the show bench. 'Love's Gift' is in Ross Roses' True Blue Collection, a group of recommended Australian bred roses.
