Gladioli Byzantinus produce brilliantly stunning magenta delicate flowers with narrow white stripes stood atop tall green stems.

Perfect for planting in garden borders and are excellent as part of a cut flower display within the home. Height 60cm. Superb value for money. 6cm+ bulbs supplied.

Growing at a glance…
Plant gladioli 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, allowing the foliage to die off naturally. You should lift and dry the corms once the plant has died down and turned straw like or brown. Store over the winter in a frost free and dry area, until ready to plant again next year.
