Description

The darkest red gladiolus we offer!

This mysterious beauty bears 3–4" wide, funnel-shaped florets that are carried along one side of its robust stems, opening from the base. The deep maroon, velvety blooms are so dark, they appear almost black—save for a small, delicate, white stripe in midpetal. Tall enough to draw attention to the back of a border, the spectacular flower spikes are ideal for fresh-cut summer bouquets. The blooms attract pollinators but repel hungry deer and rabbits.

Important Shipping Notes:

Breck's times its shipments from Holland so that bulbs and bareroots arrive at the proper planting time (depending on climatic conditions) for each area of North America. To promote optimum stress protection in transit and your success in the garden, bareroot perennials are kept in the ground in our nurseries until fully dormant. In the Fall, these plants tend to arrive at the later end of the shipping window below.

We will pack and ship your order based on the following schedules. The type of product you order or the weather may affect the anticipated shipping schedule below. Based on the contents of your order we always strive to ship your order complete, and as early as possible in the planting season to allow for the best root development once planted.
