Red gladiolus

From the Gladiolus descriptions I think your photos look like Gladious
cunonius and they also look like the photos of that species on that wiki
page. That last photo you shared is really beautiful.

The three Gladiolus that are very much alike are:
G. cunonius
G. splendens
G. saccatus.
Descriptions in the new Saunders book describe the subtle differences.
G. cunonius; upper lateral tepals point upwards, lower tepals curve upwards
G. splendens: upper tepasl point upwards, lower tepals point down
G. saccatus: perianth tube has a sac-like spur at base, upper lateral tepals do not point upwards
