Perfect for adding colour to the late summer border, the majestic spires of this stunning perennial open from the base to reveal large, bright magenta-coloured flowers, which have a soft velvety texture. Plant Gladiolus ‘Plum Tart’ in drifts through the herbaceous or cottage border, interspersing them with rich purple of soft pink-coloured flowers, or place them beside silver foliage for a spectacular summer contrast. Sought after by florists, gladioli flower spikes make spectacular additions to a large vase.
