Product Description
Gladiolus Gladdies ‘Blondy’ brings an elegant wave of pure white blooms to summer borders, beds and containers, creating a crisp, eye‑catching contrast from July through September. Its tidy, upright form adds refinement and vertical interest to mixed planting schemes.
Reaching around 60 cm in height with a 10 cm spread, this Gladiolus thrives in fertile, well‑drained soil under sunny or partially shaded conditions, developing strong, vigorous stems and dependable flowering throughout the season. Naturally sturdy and free‑standing, it performs confidently without the need for support and also doubles as an excellent cut flower for striking indoor displays.
We recommend pairing Gladdies ‘Blondy’ with plants that set off its crisp white tones and add texture to summer planting. Soft Lavender, silver‑leafed Artemisia and graceful Gaura offer contrast in form and colour, together creating an uplifting and refined border display.

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, 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.
