Good to have the information recorded, but I'm always glad to be reminded that Pedro Dot, who lived through that time in which thousands of his compatriots were murdered, never sank so low as to name a rose after Franco.
The dates of María del Carmen Polo y Martínez-Valdés herself were 1900–1988.

You need to be a little more careful with your political statements. Some users of HMF, past and present, would have supported Catholic Franco against the Communists and Republicans.

Agreed, especially in this day and age, HelpMeFind respectfully requests our guests refrain from political references, past and present please. HMF is about the joy of roses...
