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.

Editor [?] Roy Hennessey did have one of the most extensive collections of Tea Roses of any grower in the USA. Here are some of the different varieties of Teas that he carried and his comments about them:
Niles Cochet (Tea 1906). This redder form of 'Maman Cochet' is sure at the head of the Teas with so many excellent qualities and good shape too. Then it gets redder as the weather gets warmer, so in warm weather it is quite red and then all the good qualities from its parent, 'Maman Cochet', plus its deeper green leaves and perfect health, make it so lovely, too.

Niles Cochet. Hybrid Tea. A striking and unusual rose. The outer petals are distinct and different in color, shading from Tyrian rose to pomegranate purple, the inner petals changing from the most delicate sea-shell pink to the faintest of flesh pink. Hailed by garden lovers as superior to the old favorite Maman Cochet. It is a bountiful bloomer, sturdy and strong with fine bright foliage of an ivy green color. This rose was originated on our growing grounds at Niles.
