Park Seed Gladiolus Bulbs

The 'Mon Amour' variety reaches a mature height of approximately 60 inches. Because of this height, they work best as a striking vertical accent in the back of a border or in a sturdy container.

Yes, they are excellent for containers. Just ensure your pot is deep enough to accommodate the 6-inch planting depth and provides good drainage to keep the bulbs healthy.

Given their 60-inch height, staking is often recommended, especially if your garden is in a windy area. Providing support helps keep the tall spikes upright and prevents them from toppling over during heavy blooms.

These are perennials in USDA Hardiness Zones 8-10. If you live in a colder climate, you will need to dig up the bulbs in the fall and store them indoors over the winter to protect them from freezing temperatures.

Each pack contains 12 bulbs. This quantity is ideal for creating a dense, impactful cluster in a garden bed or filling a large decorative planter.

You can expect blooms from mid-summer through early fall. The flowers open sequentially from the base to the tip, which provides a longer-lasting display compared to many other summer bulbs.
