Planting and Sowing Instructions:
-
Site Selection: Gladiolus flowers thrive in full sun. Choose a location that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day.
-
Soil Requirements: Well-drained, fertile soil is ideal for gladiolus. Amend the soil with organic matter for optimal growth.
-
Planting Time: Plant Gladiolus bulbs in early spring once the risk of frost has passed, or in late fall for spring blooms.
-
Planting Depth: Plant each bulb 2-3 inches deep in the soil, with the pointed end facing upward.
-
Spacing: Space the bulbs approximately 6-8 inches apart to allow ample room for growth.
-
Watering: Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Water regularly during dry periods but avoid overwatering, as Gladiolus bulbs are susceptible to rot.
-
Supporting Growth: Gladiolus plants may require staking or support as they grow tall to prevent bending or toppling over from strong winds.
-
Care After Blooming: Once the blooms begin to fade, cut back the flower spikes, but allow the foliage to die down naturally. This helps store energy for the next growing season.
