Glad to see ya...

Early in the spring of 2009, just after moving into our new home, the kids and I planted 25 Gladiola bulbs.  Sadly, none of the flowers came up last year.  I was disappointed.  I chalked it up to the fact that I had never planted anything before.  Maybe I didn't get the bulbs far enough down in the ground or maybe I planted them too far down.

Imagine my surprise when mid summer 2010 a beautiful plant emerged.  It got taller and taller and finally one day I went out to find this.....Out of 25 bulbs we got one to bloom.  I was/am pretty proud.
