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.

Many members have commented on the beautiful roses shown on the cover of our Christmas 1998, issue and photographed in the Societies and garden. 'Pierette' is a Hybrid Rugosa shrub with large, semi-double flowers that are sweetly scented.  The flowers are produced early and continuously from June until the frosts arrive. A very attractive display of hips is produced in the autumn which are pretty in the garden or cut for decorations and the birds love them. The plant makes a compact bush about 3 feet high by 3 foot wide. It was awarded a Trial Ground Certificate in the RNRS International Rose Trials, but has, so far, not been available in this country.  However, the Society has managed to obtain a special consignment of this highly disease resistant rose and is able to offer them to members at the following prices....  Orders should be sent with remittance to the Society's HQ. Plants will be delivered in time for spring planting this year.
