Gladioli White Prosperity
G4510
Description
A glamorous gladiolus in understated pure white form. Gladioli ‘White Prosperity’ is an elegant, architectural bloom for the summer garden, with chic, crisp ruffled blooms of pure white.
Plant in small groups through a wide border for spiked bursts of sword like stems and verdant foliage in summer. Even before the flowers have opened, the chevron pattern of buds along each pointed stem will add texture and interest.
A luxurious flower for cutting, if you can bear to spare a few stems from the garden.
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.
