Are these normal folders (not portal folders)? Check
to see if these folders are even in the catalog. I'm
not sure if the portal_catalog does the normal
folders.

If the folders are in the catalog then you need to: 
* Know that full text search gets the information from
SearchableText which in turn is a method that usually
includes title, description and text
(documents,news,etc.) 
* Two options:
  - Change/create the SearchableText method to include
your property for the folder.
  - Search for folder folder_name=='A'

Hope it helps,
