Gladiolus Nanus Mixed

Gladiolus ‘Nanus Mixed’ is a delightful blend of compact, vibrant gladiolus varieties that bring a burst of colour to any garden. With flowers in shades of pink, white, yellow, and red, this mix creates a cheerful and lively display, perfect for borders, containers, or as part of a cutting garden. The shorter, more compact height of around 50-60 cm makes it an ideal choice for smaller spaces or for planting in front of taller plants. Gladiolus ‘Nanus Mixed’ blooms from mid to late summer, providing long-lasting colour and a touch of charm to your garden throughout the season.

This variety is easy to grow, thriving in full sun and well-drained soil. Its smaller size makes it perfect for adding pops of colour to the front of flower beds or in mixed containers, while its bright flowers are perfect for cutting and bringing indoors. Whether planted in groups or scattered through your garden, ‘Nanus Mixed’ is sure to bring joy and vibrancy wherever it blooms.

We supply high-quality Gladiolus ‘Nanus Mixed’ bulbs. For the best results, plant in spring at a depth of 10–15 cm, spacing bulbs 10–15 cm apart. Regular watering during the growing season will encourage strong, healthy growth, and staking may be necessary to support the stems in exposed areas.
