The beauty of flowers and what they mean to me...

I love the beauty of the gladioli and the fact that they come in so many colors...I have this purple one that bloomed recently in our yard, to me it's an unusual color that I haven't seen often.....





 I cut it and brought it inside and made a table vignette on my side table....


Some may argue against growing gladioli in the yard as it yields just one single bloom in the entire year...But for me, each bloom brings back childhood memories....that is one of the main reasons I like this flower. As a child, I always remember having them in our garden back in India. My mother would be so happy to see them bloom and then they would find their way into our home in flowers arrangements, adding beauty to our home.

Linking in to the Weekend wrap up.
