Labouring Petals

During the course of this Labour Day week-end, the gladioli in our front yard have started blooming. On Saturday, only small buds were peeking through and so, ironically enough, it was a labour-filled week-end for them to transform into these incredibly beautiful flowers.
In between the bouts of blinding sunshine and heavy rain that we've had all week-end, I had a lot of fun documenting the process, and I can't wait to see all the buds blooming into these gorgeous, orange-hued flowers; we're bound to have some very colourful few weeks ahead!

  2. They're so pretty. All my plants in the garden seem to be dying off :-( p.s. have you entered my competition yet to win £50 of beautiful vintage-inspired jewellery? http://clazzerati.blogspot.com/2011/09/competition-time-chelsea-doll.html
