  • Gladioli Byzantinus is a striking hardy perennial bulb that produces elegant, arching flower spikes in deep magenta pink from late Spring to early Summer. Each tall stem is adorned with a graceful line of funnel shaped blooms that rise above slender, upright foliage. These charming flowers are a magnet for pollinators, and bring a refined splash of colour to borders and wildflower style gardens.

  • Plant bulbs in Autumn to early Spring in well drained, fertile soil in a sunny position. Space bulbs approximately 10cm apart and 8-10cm deep. After planting, water thoroughly and add organic matter or mulch to improve soil structure. Once established, these bulbs require little maintenance and will naturalise over time. Deadhead any spent blooms to encourage extended flowering and allow foliage to die back naturally after flowering.

  • These bulbs are perfect for adding vertical colour to flower beds, garden borders, or naturalised areas. They also perform well in large containers and make excellent companions to other cottage garden plants, grasses, and perennials. Their elegant spikes also make beautiful cut flowers, perfect for bringing the garden indoors.
