1972, Moldovan
'Grecian Gown' ( Steve Moldovan, R. 1974) Sdlg. 64-10. TB, 38" (97 cm), Early to midseason bloom. Standards creamy pink; falls creamy pink with lavender plicata markings on each side of tangerine beard. (( 'Rococo' x 'Rippling Waters') x ( 'Full Circle' x 'Esther Fay')) X '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. [James McWhirter, “Reflections and Anticipations,” The Bulletin of the American Iris Society, Vol. 57, No. 221 (April 1976): 8.]
