Gladiolus oppositiflorus????

Greetings,

I am a new member of this list and this is my first post. I live near
Asheville in the mountains of western North Carolina (USA). I am hoping
some of you can help me identify a Gladiolus my husband dug up from a ditch
in an adjoining county. I have enclosed two photographs taken this week.

I think this glad may be *G. oppositiflorus* or *G. ochroleucus* or perhaps
something else altogether. Online photographs vary greatly.

The glad in question is a salmon-pink. The base flower is approximatly
2.5 inches by 3 inches. Mature flower stalks are about 4.5 feet.

Any help you can provide in identifying this beautiful glad will be
gratefully appreciated.
