    Customer photo review of Gladiolus Flower Bulbs - Chocolate

    These are the only bulbs not dug up and eaten so yay for that. They are more fushia than the photo, less red brown, more dirty pink. But again, I purchased a lot of bulbs and 8 glads bloomed out of 10 so that is a win.

    I am sad I was so looking forward to seeing these bloom. They did not grow or bloom.
