A question came to us from Milana: “Is it possible to plant gladioli before winter? If so, how to do it most correctly? "

Answer

Level of frost resistance of gladiolus

So, it is possible to plant gladioli for the winter, but only if your site is located in the southern regions of Russia. Here the soil does not freeze in winter. In these colors, the root system develops at a temperature of 10-15 degrees, and the growth of shoots occurs at 20-25 degrees. To ensure the best development of gladiolus bulbs, you need to store them at a temperature of 3-9 degrees. In this case, the root system will not inhibit the development of the plant. Corms tolerate cold, but at a temperature of -2 degrees die.
