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.

Early descriptions of 'Birdie Blye' seem to favor the darker candidate: eg. rosy-carmine 1905, deep pink 1919, sometimes magenta 1929, carmine 1930, and carmine-pink 1936. I believe the darker 'Birdie Blye' in cultivation is at least partially from a re-introduction by the Huntington of my collection of an unknown shrub rose called "Ramacita" in a garden near Alamos, Sonora, Mexico in the 1970's.

This is a nice, hardy shrub which has two flushes of flowers during the summer. It will grow to about 4 or 5 feet tall and could be used as a hedge.
