Gladioli Byzantinus

Gladioli Byzantinus

Gladiolus Byzantinus produce brilliant, wine-coloured flowers with narrow white stripes. Height 60cm. They are one of the earliest of all Gladioli, flowering from as early as May throughout June. Hardy by their very nature, they are an excellent choice for naturalising, multiplying year after year to give a larger display. Superb value for money. 6cm+ bulbs supplied.

Planting

Plant at approx 15cm deep.

Soil Type

Well drained, light, sandy soil

Plant gladioli corms about 10-15cm deep and about 10-15cm apart, in fertile/well drained soil in autumn or spring. When planting in a heavy soil, place some sand underneath each corm to help with drainage.
You can water regularly as the growth begins to appear and you can dead head when flowers begin to die off, though make sure to leave foliage to grow throughout the summer. In late autumn when frosty and cold nights are likely to return, you should lift and dry the corms and store over the winter in a frost free shed/garage until ready to plant again next year.
