Gladioli Corms

:) I ordered quite a number of Gladioli Corms for spring planting.  Unfortunately due to delays caused by the shear number of orders I’ve only just received them.  My question is, is it to late to plant them out and expect them to flower this summer?  If it is to late can I plant them this autumn or should I store them until next spring?  🌼

    I’d plant them now ... it’s unlikely that they’ll keep.

    stick them in a pot, depending on where you live, technically, they are meant o be lifted after flowering and stored I dont, and I am on heavy clay, (improved by Hubby, time compost and top soil)

    I have had mine in the garage for months. Plant them now, they will flower in September.
