1. Please let me know what mystery bloom this is?
2. What do I do with the seed stems of Flag Iris?
3. Once Gladiola have died off how do you cutback?
1. Hibiscus syriacus Bluebird.
2. cut them off just above the soil
3. cut off the flower head after it has died, leaving as much leaf as possible to build up the corm for next year.
and if you have very wet soil as in clay ,I find it is best to dig up the gladiola and winter in dry shed.
