Common corn-flag, also known as Gladiolus, Common Gladiolus, Byzantine Gladiolus
Common corn-flag requires well-draining soil and a sunny location to thrive. It is particularly important to keep the corms dry during their dormant winter period to prevent rot. Watering should be generous during the growing season, but allowing the soil to dry out between watering is crucial. Common corn-flag needs support to prevent its tall flower spikes from bending or breaking, especially when in full bloom.
