Gladiolus Big Time Supreme (Pink) – Bulbs (set of 10)

Description

The set of 10 Gladiolus ‘Big Time Supreme’ bulbs in Pink promises a spectacular summer display. With captivating shades ranging from soft pastels to rich pinks, these tall and sturdy flower spikes stand 36 to 48 inches tall, making them perfect for back borders or focal points. Blooming in mid to late summer, these gladioli thrive in full sunlight, planted 4 to 6 inches deep in well-drained soil. Ideal for cut flower arrangements, the set requires regular watering, occasional staking, and, in colder climates, corms should be lifted and stored after the first frost for spring replanting.

Planting And Care

When the earth has warmed up in the spring, following the final frost, plant the bulbs. This enables the best possible development and blooming in the middle to end of summer.

Select soil that has good drainage and is rich with organic materials. Gladioli favor soil pH that is slightly acidic over neutral.

With the pointed end facing up, plant the bulbs 4 to 6 inches deep in the ground. Give them a 6-to 8-inch space between them to ensure optimal growth.

During the growing season, especially in the dry months, keep the soil continuously moist but not soggy. When the top inch of soil appears dry, thoroughly water it.
