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.
