Planting & Sowing Instructions:
-
Choose a Planting Location:
Select a sunny spot in your garden with well-drained soil. Gladiolus plants thrive in full sunlight, so pick an area that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day. -
Prepare the Soil:
Loosen the soil to a depth of about 4-6 inches. Add compost or organic matter to enrich the soil, as Gladiolus plants prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil. -
Sow the Seeds:
Gladiolus are typically grown from corms, but for seed propagation, plant the seeds in shallow trays or containers. Sow the seeds approximately 1/4 inch deep in moist soil. If planting outdoors, wait until the last frost date has passed. -
Watering:
Water the soil gently after sowing the seeds. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Once the plants begin to grow, water regularly but ensure proper drainage to prevent root rot. -
Transplanting:
If you started the seeds indoors, wait until the young plants have at least two sets of leaves before transplanting them into your garden. Space the plants 6 to 8 inches apart to allow them to grow freely. -
Fertilizing:
Use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to encourage healthy growth. Apply the fertilizer every 4 to 6 weeks during the growing season. -
Support for Tall Plants:
As Gladiolus plants grow tall, they may require staking to keep the flower spikes upright, especially when they are in full bloom. -
Harvesting:
To enjoy Gladiolus in bouquets, cut the flowers when the bottom blossoms have just opened, leaving a few unopened buds for a longer-lasting display.
Care Tips:
-
Gladiolus flowers are easy to care for and require minimal attention once established.
-
After blooming, allow the plants to dry out naturally before removing the stems and corms for storage, ensuring that they are ready for the next growing season.
