Gladiolus

Powerful colour on tall stems

Gladiolus is an impressive summer bloomer known for its tall flower stems full of colourful flowers. From classic cut flowers to eye-catching elements in borders – gladioli bring height, structure and powerful colour accents to any summer garden. They are available in almost every conceivable colour and flower size, from large-flowered hybrids to delicate miniatures. Gladioli are very popular with professional cut flower growers and hobby gardeners thanks to their long shelf life, strong stems and easy cultivation. A sunny location and light, well-drained soil are essential for rich flowering.

Gladiolus – stately summer bloomer with powerful impact

Gladiolus are large, vertical summer bloomers with long stems and dense flower spikes that bloom from bottom to top. They are a classic in the world of cut flowers and also make a strong statement in the ornamental garden. From large-flowered varieties in striking colours to botanical or fine-flowered types – gladioli offer enormous variety.

The flowers bloom from July to September, depending on the planting time and the cultivar. The flowers appear successively along the stem, which means they remain attractive in the garden and in the vase for a long time. Gladioli are planted in spring as soon as the risk of frost has passed. They require a sunny location and slightly sandy, well-drained soil.

Professional growers value gladioli for their reliable growth, impressive presentation, and transportability. Consumers love them for their vibrant colors and ease of care. By planting regularly at intervals, a long flowering period can be achieved.

Application:

Cut flower cultivation for markets, wholesale and export
Summer borders with height effect
Group planting or as an accent plant between lower summer bloomers
