'Pink Taffeta'. Moldovan 1972. Honorable Mention 1975.
A very delicate pink plicata-nearly white ground surrounded ever so lightly with pale pink plicata markings-is GRECIAN GOWN (Moldovan '72). Here is another good grower, a quite feminine flower, and certainly worthy of attention in the uncrowded pink plicata class. [
