Description

Gladiolus ‘Atom’ with its colour scheme of orangy-red petals, edged with a fine white line, flowers in July and August and maybe even beyond. Atom’ is very floriferous, often having up to three spikes of flowers, and should not be missed in your summer flower garden. When planting, space the tubers about 10-12 cm apart and 7-10 cm deep in a sunny spot. Add some good potting soil and mix heavy (clay) soil with sharp sand. This Gladiolus has a beautiful colour array and is easy to combine. You can make special combinations with it in the border with tall perennials and Dahlias. Preferably plant Gladiolus in a different spot every year. If you plan on using this flower in a cutting, pick the stems when the lower flower open.
