Hi, gang.

 

The other day I was looking for some Gladiolus pictures online, and ran
across a Japanese website that has some pictures of first-generation hybrids
of South African Gladiolus species.  If you're a species bulb purist you
won't find this at all appealing, but to me it was very interesting to see
what happens when some of the species are crossed.  It's amazing how much
genetic variability there is in this genus.
