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.

Some All-Canadian Roses
by Fred Blakeney, Victoria, B.C.
Now we come to the Dean of Canadian Hybridizers in the person of Dr. Frank L. Skinner of Dropmore, Manitoba, who has been hybridizing roses and other plants for over sixty years. [...]
Other originations followed in succession, the chief ones being:
"Suzanne", R. laxa hybrid. Flowers very double, pale coral pink. Blooms freely all season.
Book  (1966)  Page(s) 103.  
 
"Suzanne" . . . was obtained from the second generation of the cross Rosa laxa x R. spinosissima. It is a fully double, pink-flowered variety that was introduced in 1950. It is a fully hardy shrub rose that flowers very freely in June and continues to flower throughout the summer. It is fertile, and has been used by other breeders in their work.
