Gladiolus brings inspiring and limitless colors to the summer garden. There are many varieties and sizes, and they really stand out in the landscape.



Gladioluses are easily grown from corms, and they come back every summer with a parade of blooms and colors to enjoy.















I hope everyone has a wonderful day! π

Thank you so very much! We really did enjoy the gladiolus this year. We have so many dragonflies around here, and I think they are always looking for a photo opportunity! They are so much fun to watch! Thank you for stopping by, and I’m so happy you enjoyed them! π

Just beautiful! Do they cross pollinate?

Thank you so much Dwight! You know I’m not sure about the cross pollination with these. This was a gladiolus mixture that I put out in early spring, but it will definitely be interesting to see what the blooms do next year! π

It is interesting to watch. I see it happening with my zinnias. The come up with some odd mutations as well. Marigolds do the same.

That is so interesting! I do have zinnias and marigolds too in different varieties. I love the way some plants are such a suprise when they bloom. I will definitely be watching those and would love to see what happens. π
