Growing Guide
Planting
Gladiolus
Plant in spring after the last frost.
If you cannot plant your bulbs and perennials right away, store them in a cool, dry, dark location, like a basement.
Plant them with the pointy end up in a sunny to semi-shaded area about 13 cm (5 in) deep and 13 to 15 cm (5 to 6 in) apart.
Water thoroughly after planting.
Growing
Gladiolus
Plant Gladioli at biweekly intervals for continuous colour.
These bulbs do best in well-drained soil.
Gladioli will bloom in 60 to 80 days.
Shelter from strong winds.
Care
Gladiolus
These bulbs are very easy and do not need much fertilizer.
Gladioli bloom from the bottom up and they last a long time, about 2 weeks.
Stake taller varieties.
Winterizing
Gladiolus
These bulbs are not winter hardy and need to be dug up after the first frost.
Do not wash but dry the bulbs for a day.
After you dry the bulbs, place in a paper bag.
Store them in a dark and cool location.
