Gladiolus / Sword Lilies

Gladiolus / Sword Lilies
Sword lily is a genus of flowering bulbs in the Iridaceae (iris) family. The plant is distinguished by long, sword-shaped green leaves in upright fans and funnel-shaped flowers on slender stalks that open one at a time from bottom to top. The genus, which hails from Africa, Madagascar, and Eurasia, includes over 300 species in a range of flower colors.

Sword lilies prefer full to afternoon sun, protection from strong winds, and rich, well-drained soil; however, they will adapt to most soils except heavy clay. They thrive in damp borders so do not allow soils to dry out.
