Hybridizing smallflowering Gladiolus for a hobby. Growing botanic

scented winterhybrids and gladspecies. Still growing hybrid species of the
late prof. Barnard and some other famous hybridizers in history from the
United Kingdom. Most of them grown in the open field. Also in Portugal.

Welcome, Mark! I hope you'll enjoy being part of the group.

Please say some more about your Gladiolus species and hybrids. I love the
winter-growing species, and do many people on the list. I have also been
playing with hybridizing some small winter-growing Glads, but very amateur
and small scale. Have you posted online any photos of your results?
