Plant Name	Gladiolus 'Pink Elegance' Classification Code 443 LM 'PINK ELEGANCE' (Konicek) 10-12;25-27;60-72 which is a member of the Grandiflorus Group with Large-flowered Pink (Light) bloom with a large White throat during Late Mid-Season. Bred by Konicek from Czech Republic in 1996. It has 25-27 buds on a single 60-72 inch flower spike with 10-12 florets which stay open together. Pink Elegance is described in All About Classification of Gladiolus by The British Gladiolus Society. Used for Exhibiting. From the Latin gladius ("sword"), the name used by Pliny, referring to the shape of the leaves.
Common Name	Gladiolus
Soil	Well-drained Sand or Chalk with Humus (Apply 4 inch (10 cms) deep mulch with mown autumn leaves and grass by each December, mix that mulch in with the top 9 inches (22.5 cms) of soil before replanting in April/May after last expected frost - further cultivation details in the Introduction Page). Can be planted in Clay using Dombrain's method to prevent rotting of the corm.
Sun Aspect	Full Sun
Soil Moisture	Moist
Plant Type	Herbaceous Corms
Height x Spread in inches (cms) (1 inch = 2.5 cms, 12 inches = 1 foot = 30 cms, 24 inches = 2 feet, 3 feet = 1 yard, 40 inches = 100 cms)	60-72 x (150-180 x )
Foliage	Dark Green
Flower Colour - Classification Colour - in Month(s). Seed	Light Pink with a large White throat - Pink (Light) 42 in September. See explaination of when this gladiolus flowers between 91-99 days from planting.
Comment	"Many wins to its credit since it was released. A light pink with a large white throat. A perfect tapered spike holds 10-12 beautifully ruffled florets of 25-27 buds in formal placement." from ShowGlads. "A top ten exhibition cultivar that is doing extremely well on the show table. A ruffled light pink with a large white throat. Perfectly tailored spikes hold 10-12 open of 25-27 buds. Would make a decent glad for cutting as well." from Peeters Enterprises Gladiolus. "Florence Nightingale classified 472ML usually flowers in September from a May planting. The flower will actually open all of its florets but those at the base need to be removed as they die; otherwise they may start to set seed pods which will take energy from the florets higher up. Usually, its about 14 days from the first floret opening to when the last is out." from Nigel Coe. In temperate zones, the corms of most species and hybrids should be lifted 4-6 weeks after flowering and stored over winter in a well-ventilated, warm place where the temperature is in 50 degrees Fahrenheit range, then replanted after the deciduous trees are well into leaf in the late Spring. Set corms at 6 inches (15 cms) deep and 6 inches (15 cms) apart. Can be planted anytime of the year as long as frost is not likely, allowing several crops or seasons of flowers to be had by successive plantings. Flower in about 80-90 days. Some species from Europe and high altitudes in Africa, as well as the small 'Nanus' hybrids, are much hardier (to at least -15°F/-26°C) and can be left in the ground in regions with sufficiently dry winters. Plants are propagated either from small cormlets produced as offsets by the parent corms, or from seed; in either case, they take several years to get to flowering size. Clumps should be dug up and divided every few years to keep them vigorous. Striking accent plant among summer-flowering annuals and usefull addition to perennial borders. Very good container plants, but take care when selecting container as plants can become quite top heavy when in full bloom. Cut flowers will last long time in floral arrangements; cut as soon as first buds show colour with own foliage acting as complement to flowers. Cut or remove the flower stalk just below the first leaf so the remaining 2 or 3 leaves can replenish the corm for next season’s blooms. "150 grammes/litre of Salicylic Acid treatment creates the most effective delay of petal senescence on vase life of cut gladiolus flowers" from African Journal of Agricultural Research Vol. 7(4), pp. 540-545, 26 January, 2012. Gladioli wet packed with sucrose increases floret display and vase life during storage and transportation of cut flowers - See Gladiolus 'Sylvia'. "Transplanting Gladiolus This section is created keeping in mind all those people who want to know how to transplant gladiolus in the right manner. People who have gladiolus at home must have noticed that this plant starts flowering by mid-summer and continues to bloom till frost appears in the winter months. Transplanting involves shifting of a plant from one place to the other. A gladiolus can be transplanted by relocating the corm to a relatively suitable place in a stepwise manner. • Step 1: Identify a place in your garden which receives a lot of sunlight and is well-drained to meet the requirements of the plant. • Step 2: A sufficient amount of mulch in the soil is necessary to keep the weeds away and maintain moisture content in the soil. So, place a layer of mulch on top of the soil where gladiolus will be transplanted. • Step 3: To prepare the corms or gladiolus bulbs for transplantation, place them in a shallow dish containing water filled up to a quarter-inch (6 mm) of the dish. • Step 4: Keep this dish in a place which receives adequate filtered sunlight which will trigger the corm to start germinating. • Step 5: When the germinating tip is about 5 inches (12.5 cms) long, it's time to transplant the corms in the soil. Dig holes about 8 inches (20 cms) deep and place a corm gently in the hole. Make sure to keep the growing tip upwards to facilitate further growth and cover the corm completely with soil. • Step 6: If the growing tip is less than 5 inches (12.5 cms), bury it completely within the soil but take care to cause no harm to the tip. If many corms are to be transplanted, place each of them 5 inches (12.5 cms) apart so that each one of them gets sufficient area for growth and there is no quest for nutrients and growing space. • Step 7: After all the corms are transplanted, water the area sufficiently so as to maintain a well-drained soil. Regular watering of the corms and adequate sunlight will help the corms to grow into plants capable of producing beautiful, vibrant flowers. With the arrival of winter, the flowers of gladiolus plant begin to dry out and shed off. If you want to keep the plant in safe custody over the winter months, wait until all the flowers have dried out. With the help of a trowel, dig out the corms from the soil. Remove excess soil from the corms and place them in a paper bag. Secure this bag in a cool and dry place during the winter months, so as to keep the corms safely for re-transplanting during spring. With the arrival of spring, use the method given above to transplant the corms back to the soil so that they can bloom again." from Buzzle.com. "GLADIOLUS CAN GET BUGGED Thrips are one of the most damaging insects to glads, especially in the summer. Look for silvery flecks on the foliage and silver or brown blemishes on the flowers and buds. You may also see their black droppings on the leaves. These tiny (less than 1/20th of an inch - about 1 mm - long) creatures scrape away the plant tissue, suck the juice and lay their eggs inside. Control thrips with a blast of water from the hose or insecticidal soap. Healthy plants can outgrow thrip damage." from Fred Hoffman in the USA.

Gladiolus in Gladiolus Bulb European A-E, F-M, N-Z Galleries for those classified by The British Gladiolus Society, or Non-Classified Gallery.

Nigel Coe from the British Gladioli Society has kindly let me use his photos. If a mail-order nursery from the UK is prepared to donate the use of their photos of the flower, foliage, overall plant, corm, flower arrangement, floret or award photo of any of their mail-order gladioli to this website, then more information can be provided with the existing gladioli from Europe and new ones added and compared. There are more than 600 Classified Code Gladioli in the list from the British Gladiolus Society and over 2500 in the classified list from the North American Gladiolus Council. This gallery and the other Gladioli galleries in this website were set up to detail and compare all those Gladioli.
No nursery from the UK, America, India or Australia has donated their photos from January 2012 to July 2015. I apologise that unlike the clothing industry who display their wares, that nurseries seem to only want to grow and not to inform the public about their plants for sale.

Antanas Markevieius from Lithuania has kindly allowed me to use the photos from www.geles.biz, where he sells some Russian varieties as well as his own. If you want to buy the corms to grow in Lithuania or for export to your garden in your country, please contact him prior to middle of November each year. Lithuania became independent from Russia on 11 March 1990. The gladioli that he has registered with the North American Gladiolus Council are listed and linked to his website in the Cultivar from Russia / Lithuania Page. He has very kindly stated that he will provide the flowerhead height of his gladioli, so that I can create the relevant Gladiolus Description Page and then add them to the comparison pages and then they will appear in the next row.

Gladiolus are grown and hybridised in Australia and when a mail-order nursery donates the photos and cultivation details together with the specific climactic conditions appertaining to the gladioli that they have hybridised, then those can be added to the row below, together with their Gladiolus Plant Description Pages and comparison pages for those that they can export to you for your own garden in Australia and perhaps other countries.

The Integrated Sustainable Energy and Ecological Development Association (INSEDA) is the national India organization formed by the grassroots NGOs who had been involved in the promotion of renewable energy, ecological and natural resources development programmes with special focus on the implementation of biogas development in rural areas of the country, since 1980. They have hybridised some new varieties - see Gladiolus Bulb Site Map. These Gladiolus are grown in India and if a mail-order nursery donates the photos and cultivation details together with the specific climactic conditions appertaining to the gladioli that they have hybridised, then those can be added to the row below, together with their Gladiolus Plant Description Pages and comparison pages for those that they can export to you for your own garden.
