Gladiolus

Hybrid Gladiolus are tall tightly packed spikes of beautiful ruffled flowers with contrasting throats that will brighten any border. Also known as “Sword Lily” or “Iridaceae,” they open from the bottom up and bloom around 2 months after planting. So easy to grow — you can plant after the last frost day every 3 weeks for cut flowers all summer. When corms are properly fertilized they will continue to bloom year after year. Zones 8-11. Dig and store in colder regions.  For Bushels of Gladiolas see below.
