Description

A fresh take on a garden and cut-flower classic, gladioli ‘Green Star’ delivers zingy energy to borders, containers, and arrangements. Like a crisp Granny Smith apple, the zesty, lime-green blooms are lush and refreshing. This unusual, versatile variety harmonises beautifully with any colour palette. The chartreuse petals provide the perfect counterpoint to dark, velvety hues and brightly coloured blooms; they offer a zingy foil to softer pinks, and blend seamlessly with pure whites. The linear, structural spires bring a contemporary feel and vertical interest. These reliable performers can be planted successionally, to ensure fabulous blooms from July to September.

Care Guide

To cultivate Gladioli, choose a sunny site with well-drained, well-manured garden soil. Dig a trench 15cm deep and place the corms 10-15cm apart, covering with soil and ensuring they sit 5cm below the surface. Water regularly, maintaining soil moisture until growth is established, and during hot, dry spells of weather. Stagger planting at two-week intervals to ensure continuous flowering over a long period. Expect stately, colourful spikes reaching 60-90cm in height which many require staking for support. The smaller variety ‘Glamini’ Gladioli will reach a maximum height of 50cm.
