Paint your summer garden red with these phenomenal sword lilies.The ideal addition to sunny summer gardens, this scarlet beauty boasts full sized ruffled flowers on strong compact stems that don't need staking and make excellent cut flowers. Not only are they fantastically lovely, but they are also quite eager to please and bloom earlier and longer than most other gladioli. These glads will burn brightly all throughout summer, but for colder zones the bulbs must be dug up in autumn and preserved through winter. They can then be replanted to continue their gorgeous legacy the following year. Make room in your garden for these petite yet impactful perennials and you won't be disappointed!
To ensure the continued life of these bulbs in cooler zones (3-7) dig up the bulbs and store them through winter then replant them the following spring.
