BEAUTY in PURPLE… GLADIOLI

 

 

Gladiolus flowers bloom on a long spike that ranges from 2 to 4 feet tall.

These beauties open from the bottom and work their way upwards creating a long spire of blooms.

The grass-like foliage resembles the blade of a sword giving these flowers a reputation as sword flowers.

The blooms range in colour from bold orange and red to pastel blues, pinks and yellows, lilacs, whites and purple.

 

The gladiolus flower symbolises honour and remembrance, but it has other meanings too.

 

It can also symbolise the following:

 

 

 

•Strength of character

 

 

 

•Faithfulness, sincerity and integrity

 

 

 

•Infatuation

 

 

 

•Never giving up

 

 

 

Purple, specifically means: Charm, grace and mysteriousness.

 

 

 

Have a charmed day and thank you, M, (*_*)
