Glamini Gladioli Evi
G5006
Description
Glamini Gladioli 'Evi' is a charming dwarf variety, shorter than the large flower gladiolus varieties, but still features the same large blooms. Its flowers open in soft pink, each bloom beautifully accented by deeper purple-pink throats and delicate white streaks that draw the eye to the centre.
Standing at a compact 50 - 60 cm, Glamini Gladioli 'Evi' offers all the architectural elegance of a classic gladiolus but in a more manageable, space-friendly form. Flowering from July onwards, ideal for planting in the flower border or in containers.
de Jager top quality, top size Glamini 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.
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.
