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.

Die neuen Paeonien des Hrn.Kunst- und Handelsgärtners Joseph Unterrainer in Innspruck....
A. Varietäten von Paeonia arborea...
1) Augusta Carolina. Sehr grosse milchweisse Blume. Bau locker, Petalen am Grunde schwach röthlich.
.....Die obenstehenden Paeonien sind nach des Hrn. Unterrainer Versicherung eine Auswahl der besten Blumen , aus einer Collection von 40 baumartigen und 60 krautartigen Paeonien. Der Hr. F. Enke, in dessen Verlag diese Zeitschrift erscheint, selbst ein Blumenfreund und Besitzer eines schönen Gartens, sah dieselben bei Herrn Unterrainer blühen und bat um Mittheilung der Abbildung der schönsten, wonach wir die obige Beschreibung gemacht. Die Samen, aus denen dieselben stammen, sind in dem Garten des Grafen Casati in der Lombardei gezogen worden, und kamen dieselben im Jahre 1850 nach Zerstörung jenes Gartens, in Herrn Unterrainer’s Hände. Die Abbildung von 6 der ausgezeichnetsten Blumen wird nach und nach folgen. (E. R.)
Translation:
The new peonies of the nursery Mr. Joseph Unterrainer in Innsbruck....
A. Varieties of tree peonies...
1) Augusta Carolina. Very large milk-white bloom. Loose form, petals slightly red at the base.
.....The peonies above are, according to Mr. Unterrainer's assurances, a selection of the best flowers from a collection of 40 tree-like and 60 herb-like paeonies. The Mr. F. Enke, in whose publishing company this magazine is published, himself a flower lover and owner of a beautiful garden, saw them blooming at Mr. Unterrainer's and asked for a picture of the most beautiful ones, after which we made the above description. The seeds from which they come were grown in Count Casati's garden in Lombardy, and came into Mr. Unterrainer's hands in 1850 after that garden was destroyed. The illustration of 6 of the most excellent flowers will follow gradually. (Eduard Regel)
