  • With this fantastic mixed Gladioli bulb collection, you will receive 50 or 100, easy to grow Summer flowering mixed herbaceous perennial Gladiolus, Sword Lily corms loved by pollinating insects, in particular bees and butterflies. A vibrant mix of solid and two toned flowering plants. These impactful upright growing plants will flower between late June and early July growing to an incredible 100 and 120 cm in height, adding impact wherever planted. Please note that quantities and varieties may vary depending on availability.
  • These bulbs are great for growing in flower beds and garden borders or also in patio pots. Due to their taller nature they look great when planted in mixed flower displays along with Lilies, Dahlias, Begonias and Zinnias. Gladioli will continue to grow each year with little maintenance and can be used as cut flowers allowing you to enjoy them in your home and garden. For Winter protection, mulch them deeply with 6-7cm of compost to give them insulation from late Autumn.
  • If you are not ready to plant bulbs now, then store them in a cool, dry, frost free, well ventilated location. A garage, shed, loft or cupboard are ideal. Open the paper bag to allow air to circulate round but leave the bulbs in their bags until ready to plant. Just make sure mice or other rodents can’t get access to them. Keep an eye on your bulbs while in storage, if they are showing signs of going soft, it's best to get them planted before they deteriorate any further.

    Plant these gladioli bulbs during the Spring, around about late March to mid April in fertile, well draining slightly acid soil in full sun but they can cope in partial shade. These corms should be planted about 10-15 cm deep and 15 cm apart, with the slightly pointed end upwards and roots downwards. After planting, water well and keep gladioli moist, but avoid water logging the soil. They may need staking or netting to prevent them from blowing over. Inserting canes while planting helps avoid damaging the corms.
