Gladioli ‘Rusty Chestnut’ with Burnt Bronze Flowers (8 Bulbs)

About this product

Sensationally silky flowers in timeless vintage burnt bronze hues adorn the striking Gladioli ‘Rusty Chestnut’. Available as a pack of 8 tubers, this variety is the perfect choice to blend more vibrant hues in a mixed floral display.

A short-stemmed, sturdy variety that reaches up to 70cm in height, the luxurious flowers combine bronze, hints of dusky purple and shades of brown that will elegantly punctuate and connect a display of reds, purples and oranges. They also look wonderful planted in pots and containers to add sophisticated appeal to seating areas, terraces and entrances, with flowers that last from summer through to autumn. It also makes an excellent and long-lasting cut flower to bring the beauty of the garden inside the home.

Despite its exotic appearance, gladioli ‘Rusty Chestnut’ is surprisingly easy to grow once planted in the right spot. Simply plant it in a sheltered position with full sun, in moist but free draining soil and provide a layer of protection from harsh winter conditions.
