My Little Gladiolas

I must laugh considering I didn't know what Gladiolas look like. This was my first flower planting from bulbs. I was so proud of the tiny shoots that broke the topsoil when they started to first grow. Look at them now.

Re: My Little Gladiolas

Looking good, Bob. They're easy to grow and will give you some lovely spikes of flowers. Do they get a lot of sun in their location; they do like lots of it.

Re: My Little Gladiolas

Unfortunately they can't get a lot of sun & that concerns me. There's a tree right outside my balcony that shades it so only in late afternoon, when the sun is low, do the flowers receive direct sunlight.

Re: My Little Gladiolas

Hmmm, not too good, too late to worry now. Keep us posted how they're doing.

Re: My Little Gladiolas

Hey look at you up and posting, are you alright, you dont hang about do you.

Re: My Little Gladiolas

How tall are your gladiolas now, Bob?

Re: My Little Gladiolas

About 14 inches but they're all leaves with no flowers yet.

Re: My Little Gladiolas

I was afraid the lack of full sunshine would inhibit flowering, Bob ........
