Hardy Gladiolus Claudia

Gardeners get the best of both worlds with Claudia! This dwarf hardy glad features the beauty, bold color and abundant blooms found in traditional gladioli, blended with a hardiness and strength not typically displayed in the taller varieties. Robust, 18-22" stems bear 10-12 deep crimson-red blooms accented with contrasting ivory-white stripes near the center. The overall look is quite striking and highly attractive to nearby pollinators. Blooms mid to late summer. Great for borders or as cut flowers.
