Notes

'Flevo Laser' gladiolus (Gladiolus 'Flevo Laser') 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 33 inches tall and bears fragrant red blooms that bees visit. Flowers open from early to late summer. J. Snoek bred it, so you can enjoy a tall, scented spike in the back of a sunny bed.

Pairs well with Karl Foerster feather reed grass, Wallflower, and Autumn fern.
