Flower Garden In The Woods

[RPG]

Took a few days off last week to do some hunting down home but got rained out almost every day. I managed to find a couple of house sites to hunt. Didn't find a lot. Will post those later. I have found many house sites with flowers but this one caught my eye. It's kinda weird and beautiful at the same time seeing something like this in the middle of the woods. Enjoy.

this might be a great location to hunt carefully....a friend who traveled to rural schools always kept the detector and a shovel in the trunk....he found some really neat stuff....those are nice glads...

I will be back when I have more time. I plan to dig some of the flowers this fall for the yard.

Looks like some sort of a Lilly.?

gladiola, which is in the lily family. In my area they don't survive the winter, but they must be OK in Alabama.

Yes, they can survive winters in Alabama. In fact these have survived for 100 years. This old home doesn't show up on the 1916 map I have so it predates that.

The flower is a gladiolus, so there could be a home site there or nearby. Detect thoroughly in the area. Hope you find something nice.

I too would hunt that area hard. I would also be careful around
the flowers as it might be an old family burial plot. Hope not.
Good luck and let us know how you do. Jimbob
