Great quality bulbs,I was expecting the bulbs to pit out leaves perhaps in a month or so, but they all started to pop a week later. Would purchase again
Never tried to grow gladioli before. When the bulbs arrived, they were small and dormant. I must admit that I judged them as not very auspicious. I admit I was wrong. I planted them on a sunny slope, and after about a week, I saw a few grass like strands. After planting 100 bulbs, I still judged them a bit uninspiring, but as o said I was wrong. A month on and a field of sting, healthy plants have covered the slope, tall and strong. I have now bought two more packs to extend their reach. Amazing value! Strong, healthy plants.
I guess these are too young to produce flowers blooms. It's been a year and i've only seen 1 single bloom total. Maybe next season I get so see more than just the green foliage.
I planted about half of them and they are are already about 10-12 inches tall, looks like all of them germinated. The other half is in cold storage for later planting.
I ordered 100 assorted bulbs, and am impressed! They’re coming up so quickly! They’ve only been in ground about 10-14 days, and I can’t wait to see what colors come up!
