Was Gladiolus - specifically G. palustris

Hello James,

I grow Gladiolus palustris in pots.
Does very well in our climate.
Grows in southern Germany in the wild in wet meadows.
Needs a good draining soil.
I have not tried growing them in my garden.
Our winters are mostly cold and very wet.
A bad combination for a lot of plants.

Bud I assume, a cold and dry winter is no problem.
Should be completely hardy under that conditions.

Dear friends,

Never tried growing Gladiolus palustris before, but assume it is hardy in cold climates from its distribution in Europe.

Anyone have experience growing this one? Appreciate comments Thanks Jim W.
