Unit price perShowy Gladiolus with Vibrant Colours, a Garden Favourite
Brighten your garden with the dramatic spikes of Gladiolus blooms in vibrant colours. These summer favourites thrive when planted in spring, after the danger of frost has passed. Plant corms 10-15cm (4-6 inches) deep in a sunny, well-drained spot, spacing them about 10-15cm (4-6 inches) apart. To create a continuous display, stagger planting every two weeks until early summer. These tall flowers often benefit from staking for support as they grow. Blooming from midsummer to early autumn, Gladiolus are perfect for cutting gardens, borders, and adding vertical interest to mixed plantings.
