These were the very first to sprout out of my flower bed. I either had prepared the soil really well - with peat moss and compost or these bulbs were a really really good deal. Within 10 days I had l blades of leaves on the flower beds.

When the bulbs arrived, I was surprised by how small they were. They all did look healthy though and I put them at random places around the backyard.

They all grew out to be tall, healthy plants and I am back to buy more bulbs now!

Great quality bulbs,I was expecting the bulbs to pit out leaves perhaps in a month or so, but they all started to pop a week later. Would purchase again

Never tried to grow gladioli before. When the bulbs arrived, they were small and dormant. I must admit that I judged them as not very auspicious. I admit I was wrong. I planted them on a sunny slope, and after about a week, I saw a few grass like strands. After planting 100 bulbs, I still judged them a bit uninspiring, but as o said I was wrong. A month on and a field of sting, healthy plants have covered the slope, tall and strong.



I have now bought two more packs to extend their reach. Amazing value! Strong, healthy plants.

I planted about half of them and they are are already about 10-12 inches tall, looks like all of them germinated. The other half is in cold storage for later planting.
