Named for fighters: Gladiolus flowers got their name because the leaves of the plant were shaped like a sword and made them think of the Roman gladiators.
Friends in the rose garden:Roses like to have other companion plants such as garlic, onions, marigolds, mignonettes, and thyme in the garden with them. Seasonal flowers are cheaper: Seasonal varieties are often less expensive when in great abundance. For example, roses are a super value in summer because it is their peak growing season.
