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.

Roses 1930. Au moment où nous mettons sous presse, notre adhérent, M. Pierre LAMBERT, à Trier (St. Marien) Allemagne, nous fait tenir une lettre que nous reproduisons, car elle résume les différentes nouveautés obtenues par les rosiéristes allemands.
« En réponse à votre lettre du 6 janvier 1931, j'ai donné à M. NICOLAS (Jackson, Perkins Co-Newark) toutes les adresses des obtenteurs de roses de semis en Allemagne, je pense alors que vous connaissez les variétés de notre pays. Sinon, je vous annonce les suivantes :
Frau Astrid Sprath (Poly.), Feuerschein (Poly.), Amulette (Hyb. de thé), Dr F. Weygand (Hyb. de thé), Frau Ed. Bethge (Hyb. de thé), Kate Felberg (Hyb. de Thé), Stämmler (Par.), Urdh (Par.), DEckener (Hyb. de rugosa), J. Michel  Pernetiana), Parmi les variétés de W. Kortdès Sohne, vous aurez noté, je pense : Gruss an Aachen (rosa).
D. F. Paulsen (Poly.), les connaissezvous?
Ma Rosa Druschki « rubra » (1929) sera connue peut-être? sinon, je pourrai envoyer quelques plantes.
« En automne 1931, je mettrai en commerce plusieurs variétés.
« Veuillez, etc.. »
