Gladioli Oscar
OUT OF STOCK
The traditionally tall and full flowering Gladioli Oscar will provide your garden with a flash of vivid cool scarlet. Gladioli Oscar produces huge 10-12cm velvety red flowers. Once named the 'sword lily' because of its sword-shaped leaves, the Gladioli comes in a myriad of different colours. Well-drained soil and a sunny location are ideal for growing Gladioli. At Parkers we recommend planting Gladioli in groups at monthly intervals, starting early spring, to extend the flowering season for a showcase that lasts all summer long. Try choosing Gladioli in two or three harmonious or attractively contrasting colours, planting them together in clumps. Illustrated here along with Jacksonville Gold. Top quality 12/14cm corms supplied. Flowers July to September. Height 1-1.2m.

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.
