Conca Verde Gladiolus

Gorgeous sunset hues on towering flower spires, the Conca Verde Gladiolus (Gladiolus x hortulanus 'Conca Verde') features yellow lower petals and peachy upper petals, which all have extraordinarily ruffled edges tinged in soft red!

Conca Verde Gladiolus adds its radiant flowering spires to your sunny gardens, fringed in its green sword-like vertical foliage! The flowers bloom from the bottom up to give you a very long bloom time! Much to the delight of your pollinator and hummingbirds, as well as your vase arrangements indoors!

Gladiola corms can grow as seasonal or annual accents in all USDA planting zones. However, gardeners in zones 8 to 10 can use these plants in the ground all year round as perennial accents!

Landscape Application:

Conca Verde and their heavily ruffled warm-hued blossoms are must-haves throughout your mixed perennial gardens and cottage border, turning any garden into a cutting garden and pollinator border with their gorgeous blooms!

In large mass planting installations or small courtyard gardens and containers, the Conca Verde Gladiolus will shine! However, groupings and rows of Gladiolia have a higher impact! So use them as backdrops to your garden beds, tall punctuation among perennials and shrubs, as thrillers in planters, or as winding ribbons of color where you need them most each summer!

• Upright Sword-Shaped Green Foliage
• Long-Lasting Bloom Time
• Fantastic Cut Flowers & Pollinator-Friendly

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Gladiolus flowers best in full sun in cooler growing zones but appreciates afternoon shade in hot climates. Any well-drained soil environment works great and these corms grow best when their soil isn't soggy and highly organic. These bulbs do appreciate moderate yet regular moisture access.

Plant these corms, which are round, squat little bulb-like structures, in the spring. Plant them about 6-8 inches deep. Groupings and rows have the biggest effect and impact on your garden, so plant your corms pointy side up about 5-6 inches apart.

Stake your flower wands unless you plant your Glads in a location protected from the wind. Deadhead the flowering spire as soon as the last flower fades but keep the greenery to make food for the bulb until they turn yellow. In zones 1 through 7, lift your corms up and store them for the winter in a cool, dry location. Each year you'll notice more and more little corms forming around the base of the parent corm for more blooms each year!

• Full Sun & Afternoon Shade In Hot Climates

• Deadhead After Blooms Fade & Prune or Dig in Fall

• Deer & Rabbit Resistant
