Description

Gladiolus ‘Milka’ features soft lavender-purple blooms with subtle white accents at the throat, creating a refined and harmonious appearance. The lightly ruffled petals give this variety a gentle charm, making it an excellent choice for borders, cutting gardens, or summer displays. Tall flower spikes emerge from upright, sword-like green foliage, providing vertical interest and a beautiful backdrop for its delicate flowers. Blooming from July to September, ‘Milka’ brings soothing colour and a graceful presence to the summer garden.

This variety thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, requiring minimal care for excellent results. The flowers open sequentially along the spike, ensuring a lasting display throughout the season. Ideal for planting in groups or mixed with other summer perennials, ‘Milka’ also works wonderfully as a cut flower, with blooms that hold their shape and colour well in arrangements.

We supply premium-quality Gladiolus ‘Milka’ bulbs. For the best results, plant in spring at a depth of 10–15 cm, spacing bulbs 10–15 cm apart. Regular watering and occasional staking will support healthy growth and taller flower spikes.
