Description

Gladioli 'Great Queen Elizabeth' delivers regal summer splendour with tall, graceful stems crowned in layers of lavish, ruffled blooms in rich apricot-amber and golden tones that shimmer in the sun. These statuesque gladioli bring impressive vertical accents to sunny borders and cut flower beds, their vibrant colours attracting pollinators while bringing elegance to any planting scheme or indoor arrangement.

Each flower spike carries numerous funnel-shaped blooms above elegant, sword-like leaves, delivering a dazzling spectacle from midsummer through to autumn. Their long, strong stems make them a florist's delight, ideal for adding drama to indoor arrangements if you can bear to remove them from the garden. Plant the bulbs at staggered intervals and enjoy a succession of vibrant colour that glows in every corner of your outdoor space. Ultimate height: 90cm to 120cm (35 – 47 in). Ultimate spread: 10cm to 20cm (4-8in).

How to Grow

For more information and guidance check out our Gardening Guides.

More Info
In autumn, allow the foliage to die back naturally before lifting the corms and cleaning them of soil and any remaining stems. Dry them in a well ventilated position for 2 weeks before storing them in a frost-free location for the winter. When growing gladioli in mild areas with particularly well drained soil, it may not be necessary to lift the corms. Apply a dry mulch of bark chips or leaf mould in autumn to protect the corms from cold, wet weather.
