Today will look into a very easy method of growing the beautiful Gladiolus plant from bulbs this winter with 100 percent success results at the end of the video.
Gladiolus is a classic perennial known for its tall flower spikes in a sword like fashion. Gladius means sword in latin. Hence its also called Sword Lily.
Galdiolus is commonly grown from its corms or bulbs. Infact there is a slight difference between a corm and a bulb, but at home gardening level that’s okay for me to use them synonymously.
Well, Get some fresh bulbs from a garden store and start planting them. Use larger containers because we are not gonna transplant them again. Planting gladiolus may not product same results at all zones, it differs from region to region.
Choose a good draining soil with atleast 10 percent compost mixed in it – any compost like powdered cowdung or vermicompost.
Dig the holes around 2 – 3 inches deep and space the corms or bulbs atleast 3 inch apart.
Make sure you insert the right end into the soil where roots develop – the pointed end should be facing upwards.
Then after placing them, cover them with some loose soil and water them thoroughly and keep the soil moist by checking alternate days. Do not over water, the bulbs may rot.
You should start seeing the result in a weeks time.
This is the result in 6 days. You can see the shoot developing.
Then this one at 10 days after planting.
Then finally this is the result at 2 weeks.
