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.

Multi-award winning modern patio/miniature rose of incredible beauty, fragrance and proven disease-resistance. Bred by Graham Sargeant, at Silkies Rose Farm in Victoria, this rose was awarded 2015 Bronze Medal and The Governor of Gifu award (Japan) for most fragrant rose in the National Rose Trial Garden of Australia. The shrub is constantly producing tight buds of lavender/mauve which open to reveal a mass of small petals which last well on the bush and in a vase. Gra’s Blue will be extensively used for those who love trusses of medium-sized blooms on low growing bushes with loads of perfume. The bush is extremely healthy and very low maintenance. Fragrance: Intense, spicy and fruity. Height: up to 75 cm. mauve

Gra's Blue This highly fragrant patio/border shrub rose which was bred by Graham Sargeant at Silkies Rose Farm, Clonbinane, from seeds harvested from the rose “Perfume Perfection”. It was a natural cross from an unknown pollen parent. Plants were budded and sent to the Rose Trial Gardens in Adelaide and Toowoomba in Winter 2012 where they will be assessed by a panel of judges from the Australian Rose Society to determine its ability to withstand harsh Australian conditions without any pampering – it’s sure to be a winner! Be one of the first rose enthusiasts to grow 'Gra's Blue' in your garden – a limited number of roses are available for planting NOW!
