Gladiolus Green Star is an old-fashioned gladiolus from a flower group originally native to Africa. Its blossoms alternate along tall stems, adding vertical structure to the back of a sunny border and providing cut flowers.
Plant corms at one-week intervals to extend the bloom season. Deep planting or support from sturdy companion plants can help keep the stems upright.
