I was given some Gladioli bulbs last year which have done me proud. Reading some other advice here, I have cut the spent flowers off but left the leaves to return the goodness back to the bulb.
My question is..... what do I do after that. Should I lift the bulbs and store over winter or can they stay in the ground? The weather here is not very different from that in the southern counties (we are further south but also higher up) Winter can be cold and damp but the soil that they are in is very sandy.
I would welcome your advise as I want to show glads next year in the virtual show if only to give Snadger some competition
Many thanks,
Clare.
