Notice

Colin Mills, compiler of the Hortus Camdenensis, died in late November 2012 after a short illness. As he always considered the Hortus his legacy, it is his family's intention to keep the site running in perpetuity. It will not, however, be updated in the near future.

Gladiolus species unidentified flesh-coloured

Probably a form of Gladiolus carneus Delaroche which see.  G. carneus is a variable species and Macarthur referred to a cross between two strains as ‘late flesh-coloured’.
