Growing conditions and care
For successful flowering, gladiolus requires a sunny spot and fertile, well-drained soil. Thanks to its small height, 'Nymph' is significantly more wind-resistant than its large-flowered relatives and feels great at the front of mixborders or in containers. Regular watering during the budding period will ensure the full opening of the inflorescence. After the end of the season (in October), the bulbs must be dug up and stored in a dry, cool place until spring.
