The Bulb Garden- Thanks - Gladiolus

Dear PBSers,
One of the benefits of joining the PBS is the Seed/Bulb
exchange, but it also includes a subscription to the quarterly
newsletter "The Bulb Garden".

For years I've grown hardy glads and baffled by the names G.
italicus, communis and byzantinus. Now that Angelo Porcelli explained
the differences in a recent 'Bulb Garden' I was able to ID every
hardy glad that has bloomed this spring. With today's opening of G.
communis , they finally all make sense.

Thank you Angelo
Thank you Bulb Garden
Thank you PBS

All's right in my Gladiolus 'world'. Best Jim
