must not have read the instructions right....

I don't know how I manage to do these things, but I have the talent.
Couple of months ago I planted some new gladiolas bulbs in my back yard. Guess I did not see the label attached, because somehow I planted them backwards, and the flowers are facing away from the house and towards the wall. From what I can see, it is a really pretty color, but like I said, I cannot see the flower from the front on to give a definitive answer. I have a great photo of the shy flower, but I cannot find my camera. I think my son borrowed it so that he could take photos of himself and his new car....a 2003 Chevy Trailblazer that purrs like a kitten and is as neat as a pin inside. What a day off...nothing accomplished except pure joy and spiritual fulfillment for my son as he drove off into the sunset.
