We have now truly cracked the simplest way to grow gladioli

Plant them in with something (like dahlias) which you will mulch deeply through the winter, and these glads all become perennial, and truly get better year after year. As with foxgloves, I love their curves, arches and spires, always adding brilliant shapes to any combination. Here I've combined the richest crimsons and purples with the odd splash of lipstick red.

This collection contains 10 corms each of:
  • Gladiolus 'Purple Flora'
  • Gladiolus 'Plum Tart'
  • Gladiolus 'Espresso'
  • Gladiolus 'Magma'
  • Gladiolus 'Zorro'
  • Gladiolus 'Belle de Nuit'

Plant the corms 10cm apart and 10-15cm deep in clumps or lines. For containers, you can pack them in more closely. Plant a few every couple of weeks to give a succession of flowers through the summer and autumn.

Care Tips

Water regularly during growing season and stake tall varieties. If you're growing in containers, stop watering at the end of summer and bring the pots indoors for the winter. Leave them in their pots or take them out and dry.
