Byzantine Gladiolus


Byzantine Gladiolus (Gladiolus communis subs. byzantinus)

They are just coming into flower now. I love them, though they seed themselves and pop up in unexpected places - but does it matter in a cottage garden?

These don't mind full borders - they pop up amongst other plants with NO trouble!
