Description

Ruffled Gladioli ‘Magenta Princess’, produces lavender-magenta petals with soft cream through the centre. The ruffled edges of the petals enhance the floral texture, giving each tall spike a lush, layered appearance that is both elegant and dynamic.

Mature plants reach a height of 90–100 cm, making them ideal for borders or as a vertical accent in mixed plantings. Flowering from mid summer to late September, the long-lasting blooms are perfect for cutting.

de Jager top quality, top size Ruffled 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.
