    I'm on the south cost and after last weeks heat they have started to appear, my first year of growing them. I just hope the next week of wet weather doesn't cause too much damage x

    I’ve just got the planting baskets delivered so will dig some ground at the weekend and get mine in. 
    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

    My newly planted gladioli corms have not shown through yet - I would be surprised if they had.

    Our Gladioli Byzantinus, which are in the ground, have the flowerheads starting to appear but probably another 1-2 weeks before they will open.

    Hi mine have also stated showing in pots, they did flower last year, is it true they will not flower in the second year?

    @kathmay I planted gladioli out in the garden 4 years ago and they've come every year so far. .....fingers crossed they'll appear again this year

    Put some in a pot a month ago .... think they must have turned round and gone down to the bottom. But I can see a root poking out of the bottom of the pot - so am still hoping.

    Hi mine that are in the ground are about five inches through now, I dont lift them at winter but I have a sheltered walled garden in Suffolk.
