Gladioli Green Star
OUT OF STOCK
Add a touch of zingy vitality to your late summer border with the Gladioli Green Star. This green gladiolus produces silky ruffles of lime coloured flowers, and will grow to a mature height of 90cm making it the perfect plant for adding height and dimension to your floral display. What's more, Gladioli are also a favorite cut flower of the British florist, so we recommend planting in abundance to ensure that excess stems can be cut and enjoyed in a vase or summer bouquet. Why not contrast with subtler pastel varieties as part of a mixed cottage-style display for maximum effect? Plant in sunny or partially shaded locations to ensure optimum richness of flower colour. 12/14cm corms supplied.

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 spring. Planting can be done in succession from early March onwards to the end of May at fortnightly intervals. This ensures a continuity of flowers throughout the summer months. 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.
