FOTD – Gladiolus

Happy Friday everyone. Today’s flower of the day is the gladiolus (sounds like something from Harry Potter) and it is from the Iris family. Known also as “sword lilies” due to their long, pointed leaves, which resemble a sword.

Apparently these flowers symbolise strength and moral integrity. Their tall, resilient stems symbolize inner strength and courage

Inner strength and courage is much needed in these testing times. The world is very heavy at the moment and I fear I should stop watching the news as I am losing faith in humanity.
