Sowing
Sow once the soil is warmer than 10 °C, in a sunny spot sheltered from the wind. Sow about three times as deep as the seed is thick, into finely raked soil with no clods on top. Spacing is as printed on the packet — thin the seedlings out after they come up. Water with a fine spray so the seed is not washed away, and keep only the strongest plants.
Description
A gladiolus variety from the Primulinus group, known for its elegant, delicately coloured flowers.
Characterised by bright red petals with a white or cream stripe in the middle.
The flowers are slightly asymmetrical and smaller than typical gladioli, which gives a more natural and refined look.
Popular with gardeners for its attractive appearance and relatively easy cultivation.
How to grow
Gladioli need regular, moderate moisture.
In dry and hot places they do not develop well and produce crooked stems and small, poorly formed flower spikes. They do not tolerate wind-exposed sites.
They are also demanding about soil. Alluvial, moisture-retentive warm soils suit them best.
Feed with well-rotted manure, preferably in autumn.
Watering is essential during flowering.
