Description

Dwarf Gladiolus Nymph is a real summer bloomer that flowers in July and August and often beyond. This Gladiolus has a varying colour palette of purples from gentle mauve to sky blue and grows to 100 cm. ‘Nymph’ is very floriferous and should not be missed in your summer flower garden. You can plant the Gladiolus tubers about 7-10 cm deep in the spring. First loosen the soil well and sprinkle a layer of sharp sand at the bottom of the planting hole. This allows rainwater to drain well under the tubers. Space the tubers about 10-12 cm apart. Add some good potting soil when planting. Mix heavy (clay) soil with sharp sand before planting. This lGladiolus likes to grow in a warm sunny spot and its beautiful colours are easy to combine.with other Gladiolus, 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 opens, preferably early in the morning and immediately place the stems in a vase with lukewarm water with cut flower food.
