RED... en garde, GLADIOLUS
PLEASE READ THIS: MY PHOTOS ARE ONLY FOR SALE DIRECTLY FROM ME!
Gently sprinkled with pollen...This one,a vibrant and passionate red, flanked by two strong dark green blades. The waiting buds only just peeping out.
Summer is leaving us in a flurry of colour
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.
Symbolising 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!
Thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)
