Gladioli Giant Flowering 'Kirov' - 10 bulbs

Gladioli Giant Flowering 'Kirov' is perfect for adding some striking colour to a summer border with reaching spires of ruffled white flowers that are dashed with deep and vibrant purple throats. This striking contrast throughout the blooms is sure to turn heads and inject some life into any summer garden or border.

Below the striking blooms these Gladioli produce their famous sword-shaped leaves, from which Gladioli take their name, creating a beautiful well-rounded display that delights in borders and pots or when cut for an arrangement.

These Gladioli would mix perfectly with other vibrant blooms such as the Gladioli Butterfly 'Silvana' or the Gladioli Giant Flowering 'Plum Tart'.

We recommend planting these bulbs in two week intervals from March into June to ensure a continual bloom throughout the summer. For the best results, plant in clusters of five or more in a position of full sun with each bulb 10 cm deep and 10 cm apart.

These Gladioli may require staking and will need water during the growing period and mulching with peat or compost to conserve moisture.
