Please don’t leave because of that lame title. I really am glad my husband planted these gladiola bulbs for me last summer.
Please visit my photoblog for another Wordless Wednesday!
Visit 5 Minutes for Mom or Wordless Wednesday for more Wordless Wednesday participants.





























And you should be glad! That bright pink(?) against the green foliage and blue sky make for a lovely photograph. Do gladiolas have a nice aroma? (I’m so not familiar with flowers!)
Happy WW, again! (I came over from the shots of your daughter’s toes.)

That’s the thing with bulbs - you plant them and have to wait forever to see any results. Thankfully, the results are usually incredibly beautiful. Nice photo.
I remember landscaping a yard back in college and my friend and I planted about 100 bulbs all over the place, but didn’t tell the owners. They were blown away when everything came up and bloomed. It was a fun surprise, which they were thrilled to see.

I really like your gladiolas! They are very pretty. I can remember digging up my grandmother’s tulip bulbs and cutting them in half, I hated it, but the result the next year was so nice.

I have them planted all over our property. None have started blooming yet, but soon we will have hundreds! I have noticed that some of the best colors, after a few years revert back to a less desirable color.
Happy WW!

What a gorgeous color! I associate gladiolas with my grandmother. She grew them and loved them. I’ve always liked them too. This is such a beautiful delicate color.

I like the lame title! Puns are great. And that’s a nice photo. The gladiolas must really brighten up your garden.

Worth the wait! Lovely blooms.

Love them! They are so old fashioned, reminds me of the scene in It’s a wonderful Life after the pool scene where they are standing in front of a house with glads in the garden behind them, wish it was in color. Thanks for sharing! Mine is not as pretty but impactful. Nice blog!
