Notes
'Flevo Select' gladiolus (Gladiolus 'Flevo Select') 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 blooms open from early to late summer and attract bees. The flower spikes reach about 47 inches tall, so they make long cut stems. M. Snoek bred it.
Pairs well with Purple loosestrife, Autumn fern, and Casa Blanca lily.
