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.

I planted this Nightingale rose two years ago and overall am pleased with my plant. It is vigorous growing and winter hardy so far in my zone 5b/6a garden. The flowers are electric pink and have excellent form and substance but I don't detect any fragrance at all. It will develop a little powdery mildew late in the fall if I get lazy with spraying, but so far I have seen no blackspot at all on the foliage. The flowers make a nice addition to a vase of flowers in the home as they are very vibrant and shapely. Just be sure to cut it at the proper stage as the blooms for me don't continue to open once they are cut. The upside is that the cut bloom holds that form like iron. The bush itself is upright but not overly tall, getting only about 3' to 4' tall at the most. This is a good rose in my garden.
