Description
May and June are a riot of colour as the bluebells and Whistling Jacks line the hedgerows of Cornwall.
To give them their proper name, Gladiolus communis subsp byzantinus cause small scale chaos here as the tourist coaches hurtle to a halt on the command of their passengers who cannot believe their eyes.
A Mediterranean native known to gardeners since the 16th century as corn flag and to the Cornish as whistling Jack, a name nobody seems able to explain or how it came to Cornwall, flourishes in this special part of our world and the visitors are always amazed by the beauty of them.
