Gladiolus MM 11-14

Seed parent: Gladiolus MM 00-00a (G. gracilis X G. priorii)
Pollen parent: Gladiolus carinatus

A magenta hybrid crossed with a blue species. The result was very nice.

MM 11-14a. Has the magenta color of the seed parent, but with most of the throat white.

MM 11-14b. This one is purple, with very delicate stippling in the throat.

MM 11-14c. Looks a lot like the pollen parent.


MM 11-14d. Like form a, but in purple.


MM 11-14f. Very pale, with magenta veins.

MM 11-14g. A paler version of form b. Check out the faint hint of turquoise in the centerline of the outer tepals.
