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.

Ralph Moore made a cross 'Mark Sullivan' x 'Golden Moss'. Now 'Mark Sullivan' was an unhealthy Hybrid Tea from Charles Mallerin, who called it 'President Chausse'. Moore's cross was successful to the extent of producing a mossy Hybrid Tea; nothing great, but encouraging. So he went along for another generation by the cross: unnamed yellow Hybrid Tea x (Mark Sullivan' x 'Golden Moss'). From the progeny, he selected a pure yellow seedling, and tried a third generation by putting its pollen on to 'Rumba'. This gave him the plant which after all that work was merely the tool he had been trying to forge for future use. It was a tool shaped like a mossy yellow Floribunda, and he called it Goldmoss'
