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.

 C. ligusticifolia (Nutt.! mss.): “plant somewhat pubescent; flowers in paniculate corymbs, diæcious; leaves pinnate and ternate; leaflets oblong, acute, mostly somewhat lanceolate-cuneate, incisely toothed and trifid; petals and stamens equal in length; carpels with long plumose tails. -C. Virginiana, Hook. fl. Bor.-Am. 1. p. 1. (in part). 
β. brevifolia: leaves smoother, shorter and broader.
“Plains of the Rocky Mountains, in open and in bushy places, near streams. β. in the Blue Mountains and on the borders of the Oregon.Very similar to C. Virginiana, but the leaves are mostly 5-foliolate, and almost lucidly coriaceous; they are also much smaller, and in the var. a. much narrower and longer. The tails of the carpels are also longer, and more densely plumose in C. Virginiana. Flowers white and fragrant." Nutt.
