Gladiolus Hardy
|
The Hardy Gladiolus, Gladiolus, with a delightful rich pink flower, blooms in the early summer. These wonderful pink blooms make fantastic cut flowers. Their sword-like foliage and tall, impressive flower spikes make striking accents in the mixed flower border. Shorter than typical gladiolus, most hardy glads top out at just 30 making them strong contenders for prime spots in mixed perennial gardens. For best garden effect, plant in groups of six or more of a single color, or grow dozens of them in a bed reserved for cutting. (Imagine the luxury of having arm-loads of glads to display around the house!) To enjoy blooms for many weeks through July and August, plant corms at two-week intervals from early spring until the end of June. Glads are easy to grow, requiring only full sun and good drainage. Simply plant, water as needed and rely on them to fend for themselves.
