If you are always looking for something different for your garden, Gladiolus Murielle, is amazing. Gladiolus Murielae is a beautiful spike leaf bulb, native to the mountain areas of East Africa. It grows an awesome 2 to 3 feet tall with white star-like petals and a dark purple center and throat. The multiple buds graduate up the top of the stem with an almost vanilla like fragrance. Gladiolus Murielae likes consistently moist, well drained soil, and full sun -growing more commonly in zones 7 to 10. However, in zone 5, I will be digging up the corms and storing them in peat moss in my cool back room over the winter. Similar, perhaps, to a dahlia.
