'Flevo Libre' gladiolus (Gladiolus 'Flevo Libre') 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. The fragrant, dark pink-red blooms open from early to late summer and again from early to late autumn. Bees visit the flowers. J. Snoek bred it.
