Glamini Gladioli Mix
G5004
A wonderfully balanced mixture of contrasting colours, Glamini Gladioli Mix bold spikes rise proudly, each one bursting with vibrant hues which play off one another in striking contrast. Their upright forms seem almost defiant, bringing energy and structure to spaces.
The ruffled blooms and shorter height makes this glamini gladiolus mixture perfect for pots, borders, and smaller gardens where traditional tall gladioli struggle.
de Jager top quality, top size Glamini Gladioli are best grown in fertile, well-drained soil, in a sunny spot. Plant the corms a week or two apart throughout spring for a long succession of pretty flowers.
Care Guide
To cultivate Gladioli, choose a sunny site with well-drained, well-manured garden soil. Dig a trench 15cm deep and place the corms 10-15cm apart, covering with soil and ensuring they sit 5cm below the surface. Water regularly, maintaining soil moisture until growth is established, and during hot, dry spells of weather. Stagger planting at two-week intervals to ensure continuous flowering over a long period. Expect stately, colourful spikes reaching 60-90cm in height which many require staking for support. The smaller variety ‘Glamini’ Gladioli will reach a maximum height of 50cm.
