Pollen parent: Gladiolus tristis
G. carinatus is a beautiful blue tubular flower. G. tristis is fairly plain, cream-colored with a few dark markings. But it's very vigorous and has a flower stalk a couple of feet tall. Getting bright colors on G. tristis would be beautiful. So that's what I'm trying to do.
MM 11-04a. Pleasant, but not what I was shooting for. Maybe the F2 cross will be better.
