Notes
'Pole Position' gladiolus (Gladiolus 'Pole Position') 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 75 inches tall and bears fragrant purple blooms. Bees visit the flowers, and you can stake the tall stems in a windy spot.
Pairs well with Karl Foerster feather reed grass, Society garlic, and Autumn fern.
