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.

I've grown Salute for 2 years. I love it! Rich deep red, prolific, and very disease-resistant for me. I live in hot, humid blackspot territory. Slightly fragrant as a cut flower, I smell nothing from it outdoors. This rose replaced my Black Jade mini; only a shade lighter in color but equally beautiful form and the blooms last much longer and don't burn in the sun like Black Jade.

How is the form of the flowers? I'm considering getting a better red than I have now. Blackspot resistance is key!

I grew 3 plants of Salute in a part sun garden zone 5/6 in hot humid Lincoln, NE. They were covered with blackspot and did not do well in my garden. Other miniatures were blackspot free in my garden.

Karen & LoveMyRoses & everyone else,

Thank you for sharing your experience but we would ask if you could go one step further and use the Ratings feature of HMF to record your experience. You'll see there is a specific plant rating for "Disease resistance".

It would be tremendously useful to have more site guests take the few minutes to rate the plants they grow. Your ratings are anonymous but you can change your ratings anytime should your opinion change.
