From AIS Bulletin #201 April 1971 Introducing CAROLYN ROSE. Rose-pink plicata with a bright yellow beard. Many dainty, flaring flowers on 20" to 23" slender stalks.

Mary Louise Dunderman's CAROLYN ROSE ('71) has been an eye-catcher everywhere it was guested, both this year and last. It forms large clumps with great numbers of slender stems and many small flowers in bloom at once. A dainty orchid-pink plicata, it has most of the pink color concentrated in the standards and the little round falls carry as white.
