Additional Information
Gladiolus
Showy summer bloomer excels as a cutflower. Each stalk is covered with 10 or more open funnel-shaped flowers that bloom from bottom to top. Named for their sword-like leaves; a gladiolus is a small Roman sword. Each stalk blooms for about a week, roughly 8 weeks after planting.
Tender Summer Bulbs
Spring-planted bulbs offer wonderful variety to the cutflower market and are a staple in old-fashioned gardens. The bulbs we offer here are (mostly) not hardy to northern winters. Smart and thrifty people lift and store them over the winter; the rest of us treat them as annuals.
Flowers
All flowers are open-pollinated except where noted.
Days in parentheses after a variety indicate days to first bloom.
