Notes

'Dot Com' gladiolus (Gladiolus 'Dot Com') is a bulb for borders and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to wet, loamy soil. It grows about 55 inches tall and bears fragrant, dark purple-red blooms. Bees visit the flowers. Tjeerd Dijkstra bred it, so you can enjoy a tall spike of color in the back of the bed.

Pairs well with Festiva Maxima peony, Mondo grass, and Bridal wreath spiraea.
