Gladiolus 'Sugar Babe'
Make your summer garden extra splashy with the bright salmon spikes of Gladiolus 'Sugar Babe'. This cheery character is also quite a flashy one, each tall, upright stem is fully padded out with large flowers in a glorious, glowing sunset shade—an ombre which includes salmon and apricot tinged with blush pink. As if that weren’t impressive enough, the foliage of Gladiolus 'Sugar Babe' remains short, meaning the blooms can be seen in their full glory. This floral supermodel fits easily into a wide range of planting schemes; however, a top pick has to be those which focus on a soft, pastel, cottage-garden charm.
If you’re thinking of what to pair with Gladiolus 'Sugar Babe', we highly recommend plants with purple flowers. You can add zesty lime to the mix by underplanting with Alchemilla mollis. Perfection! Gladiolus 'Sugar Babe' are happiest in a sunny spot and well-draining soil. If you garden on heavy clay (often wet and sticky during winter, and baked rock-hard during summer), either mix plenty of horticultural grit into the soil, or instead grow yours in a container.
