Hardy Gladiolus Nanus Nymph
M5485
Description
A sweet, early flowering variety of dwarf Gladiolus, ‘Nanus Nymph’ produces compact spikes of charming blooms on stems 50-60cm tall and is one of the most beautiful cultivars available. The flowers are whitish pink, with creamy blotches and china-rose markings on the petals.
Corms should be planted into moist, well-drained soil in early spring. Gladioli prefer a spot in full sun without too much competition from surrounding plants. Fully hardy and perennial.
Excellent for cutting. Pick hardy gladiolus Nanus Nymph when the lower blooms begin to open and as stems mature in the vase, remove faded flowers for a long-lasting display.
Care Guide
For early flowering, hardy Gladiolus, choose a warm and sunny, well-drained location. Plant corms with the pointy side up, 8-10 cm deep and 15 cm apart in the soil. Provide consistent watering after planting and during dry spells, ensuring soil remains moderately moist.
Plant corms at intervals, every two weeks from spring until early summer for a staggered display. After flowering, remove spent and withered stalks and foliage and apply a mulch to the soil in late autumn.

Harmony & Alida Mix
M5630
A harmonious pairing of two exquisite blue dwarf Iris. Blooming in tandem during February and March, this mixture includes the bulbs of soft blue Iris ‘Alida’ and royal blue ‘Harmony.’
With both varieties reaching a dainty 15cm in height, this pretty mix is ideal for planting near the front of a mixed border, in rockery gardens and spring container displays.
Plant the teardrop bulbs in moisture-retentive soil in full sun. Ensure the ground or your potting mix is able to drain well, especially during the winter months as waterlogging can lead to rotting.
Planting in groups and swathes creates a natural and impactful display.
