 Gladiolus - Vera Lynn Price: 10.35 Nature
Hills Nursery, Inc.
The Gladiolus Vera Lynn, 'Gladiolus', are soft blue, almost
white, with a dramatic deep purple splotch in the center. Prized for
large bouquets, stately gladioli (yes that's the accepted plural
form, and much more graceful than the alternatives) offer an
enormous color range, including the most delicate pastels, bold hues
and almost unimaginable bi-colors. Their sword-like foliage and
tall, impressive flower spikes, make striking accents in the mixed
flower border. For best garden effect, plant in groups of six or
more of a single color, or grow dozens of them in a bed reserved for
cutting. To enjoy blooms for many weeks through July and August,
plant corms at two-week intervals from early spring until the end of
June. Glads are easy to grow, requiring only full sun and good
drainage. Hardy in zones 8-11; elsewhere treat as an annual, or dig
them in the fall and store over winter.

sunny environments. They need plenty of nitrogen to form vigorous
leafy growth, but will thrive in most soils, including clay, as long

shady spots and works well in containers when young. It was awarded
Hosta of the Year 2007.
