A pack of 10 Gladioli Giant Flowering ‘Fidelio’ will produce charming spires of vibrant pink-purple blooms, reaching through and above a summer border. These large, elegant flowers grow above tall sword-like leaves, rising upwards of 120cm making them the perfect addition to the back of a summer border.
Also known as ‘sword lily’ because of its sword-shaped leaves, Gladioli ‘Fidelio’ will add depth and dramatic colour to garden displays. We recommend planting ‘Fidelio’ alongside contrasting colours of Gladioli for an eye-catching and exciting summer display. The unmistakable beauty of these large 10-12cm flowers makes them a favourite of florists for their cut flower displays.
Gladioli look fantastic planted in groups, in a position of full sun. We recommend planting these bulbs through March into June in two week intervals to create a long-lasting burst of blooms that lasts throughout the summer. Plant each bulb 10cm deep and 10cm apart. After the buds are formed, stake the stems around 5cm from the base, preventing damage to the bulbs. Gladioli need water during the growing period and mulching with peat or compost to conserve moisture.
