Description

Large Flowered Gladioli ‘Milka’ produces elegant spires of ruffled, soft-lilac blooms over several weeks in summer. 

The exquisite flowers are perfect for cutting and adding an architectural sweep to large floral designs. Cut large flowered gladiolus 'Milka' when the first buds begin to open from the bottom for the longest vase-life. Grows to a height of between 80 - 100 cm.

Ideal for both contemporary garden schemes, and traditional cottage garden borders.

de Jager top quality, top size Gladioli are best grown in fertile, well-drained soil, in a sunny spot.  Plant the corms a week or two apart throughout spring for a long succession of pretty flowers between July and 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.
