Gladiolus Mix

Gladiolas are a garden favorite, due to their elegant flower spikes and sword like foliage. They are easy to grow and require little maintenance. Their long stems allow you to grow armloads of flowers, making them perfect for small spaces and container gardens. Gladiolas are a stunning cut flower and typically last a week or more in a vase. They also make a beautiful addition to a shrub border or perennial garden.

Planting/Care Instructions +

Planting Instructions: Gladiolus will grow in any good garden soil but do need full sun and good drainage. Plant 4" deep in clay soils, 6" deep in others; the deeper the planting the less need for staking. Planting Tips: Stake for best appearance and straightest stems. Space planting times at two-week intervals from early spring to late June to ensure a continuation of mid and late summer blooms. Plant at biweekly intervals for continuous color. Increase water and fertilizer when flowers begin to develop. Space plants 5" apart. Plant height 30-40" tall.
