Raindrops on Jacob's Ladder
Some people have identified this flower as Jacob's Ladder. However, it doesn't look anything like the 20 or so different flowers called by the same name on the Internet!
This is an old-fashioned bulb that resembles a miniature gladiolus, and it spreads. Well, the flowers DO look like a ladder, especially in full bloom.
I know it as Byzantine gladiolus.
ReplyDeleteThe color is beautiful!
ReplyDeletePretty! I like the color. So bright!
ReplyDeleteWhatever it is, it is a beauty!
ReplyDeleteThanks, NellJean. Glad to know that it is a gladiolus.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what these are. Very pretty tho.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful color and lovely shot !!
ReplyDeleteThe shape of the blossoms and the colour are wonderful visual images.
ReplyDeletePS. Haven't visited recently because I have a typical Minnesota summer cold with sleeplessness and lack of stamina--not much fun! Haven't been around much as a result! Have a good week-end!
