Notes

'Flevo Primo' gladiolus (Gladiolus 'Flevo Primo') 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. Its red-pink blooms are fragrant and attract bees. The flower spikes stand about 47 inches tall, so you may want to stake them in a windy spot. M. Snoek bred it.

Pairs well with Society garlic, Mondo grass, and Wallflower.
