  • People like Gladiolus "Peter Pears" because its flowers are a bright coral-orange colour. The petals have a warm, vivid colour that gets even brighter when the sun shines on them. This keeps the edges looking bright and vibrant all summer long.

  • This type grows quickly and has tall, elegant stems that give planting ideas height and structure. The bright hues look great when you put them in beds with a fiery theme or with blues and purples that are opposite them.

  • "Peter Pears" blooms bloom dependably from mid-summer to late summer, generating a lot of spikes that are great for both garden displays and cutting for bright indoor arrangements.

  • Light Required Full sunlight

    Watering Moderate watering

    Best Growing Conditions 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.
