Let’s plant the The Gladiolus palustris in the garden, because it’s a garden plant, which can stand the cold.

mediterranean : The Gladiolus palustris doesn’t request much watering; during this time of year it is sufficient to wet the substratum deeply when it is dry; typically it is good to act every 0-1 weeks using about 3-4 glasses of water.

Feed Gladiolus palustris : In the summer we should fertilize only the bulbous plants in vegetation, which have a lush foliage; let’s act every 10-15 days, adding specific fertilizer to the irrigating water.

Adversity Gladiolus palustris : Summer treatments should be applied only in cases of displayed infesting; a dry climate favours the development of ticks and rust. During this period of the year, since there are many useful insects in the garden, it is advisable to avoid using wide-range products, favouring the use of specific products against each type of parasite. Let’s apply the treatments during early morning or evening hours.
