GLADIOLISSIMO...

PLEASE READ THIS: MY PHOTOS ARE ONLY FOR SALE DIRECTLY FROM ME!

 

Summer is leaving us reluctantly and in a flurry of colours.

Gently sprinkled with pollen...

Named for the shape of their leaves, like blades, gladioli – from the Latin word “gladius,” meaning sword – have a history than spans from Africa to the Mediterranean.

Symbolizing strength and moral integrity, gladioli also represent infatuation, with a bouquet conveying to a recipient that they pierce the giver’s heart with passion. How romantic!
