‘Natan' Large Flowering Gladiolus, Bright Pink

Natan glads are a fun and quirky pop of bouquet. We love how much they add to the landscape and folks could not get enough of them last year. Hopefully we have enough for ourselves this year. 

We provide them in 12/14 cm bulbs (technically corms) so you get the best available. Gladiolus are deer, rabbits, and rodent resistant. For our large flowering glads, we bring in large 12/14 corms so you get bigger blooms.  Click here for all of our gladiolus offerings.

Key Planting Tips

Plant gladiolus 4" deep with an amended soil with 10-10-10 or something similar. Just make sure the first number (nitrogen) is 5 or 10. Or plant with a finished compost. 

Stagger your planting every 2 weeks so you can enjoy blooms continuously all summer. 

To lift and store for winter, simply go dig up corms after the foliage has faeded to yellow/brown.  Separate the mother corm and compost/dispose and most of the time you will have two new corms.  We sepearate those usually when we dig them up after we hose them off.  Dry in a single layer out of the sun for a 10-14 days then we simply place in netting or crates for winter. They are not stored with any medium - this is partly why Grandma loved them so much.
