Pretty Glads! Mine didn't do well this year because it was too dry. Glad you could enjoy them! Happy Pinks and have a wonderful weekend.

I have always loved Glads too. They were one of my Daddy's favorites and he had some really gorgeous ones. I've never had much luck though growing them in South Carolina. Have a great weekend, Nan
ReplyDeleteAn awesome gladioli presentation. These are such a vibrant pink.
ReplyDeleteA truly lovely flower, and such a wonderful colour. Happy Pink Saturday!
ReplyDeletethese are so lovely, I envy you for having them; used to years ago, then moved and never replanted. Just moved again last week and I plan on having a lovely fall garden and then more for next season, will bring back the gladioli!!! Hope you have a fun Pink Saturday!

ReplyDeleteDid you know that if you cut the topbud off, all of the rest buds blooms at the same time.
