Flevo Snow

❄️ Gladiolus ‘Flevo Snow’
As crisp as a South Island frost  — ‘Flevo Snow’ is your go-to for pure white blooms with serious garden cred. She’s tall (but, not too tall!), tidy, and tough as old boots when it comes to pests and heat.

Whether you’re chasing wedding-worthy stems or just want to brighten up the back fence, this Flevo stunner delivers the goods.
She’s not your nana’s gladi — she’s new-gen, and bred to bloom like a boss.

🌿 Specs That Matter:
•     Colour: Snow white with lush green foliage — no yellowing here
•     Height: Up to 1.2 m — she stands proud
•     Bloom Time: Mid-summer — about 90–120 days from planting
•     Flower Form: Large, ruffled spikes — like lace on steroids
•     Disease Resistance: Strong against Bean Yellow Mosaic Virus
•     Weather Tolerance: Handles heat and dodgy weather like a champ
🌱 Growing Tips
•     Plant after Jack Frost has packed his bags
•     Give her full sun and well-drained soil — she’s no fan of wet socks
•     Space 15 cm apart, 10–12 cm deep
•     Stake if the wind’s giving it heaps
•     Lift corms in autumn and stash them somewhere cool and dry — like the shed, not the fridge

🌸 Why She’s Choice:
•     Award-winning — took out “Best Large Flowered Variety” at CNB’s gladi show
•     Top pick for bouquets, borders, and a bit of backyard razzle-dazzle
•     Looks mint with pinks, purples, or even a splash of lime green.
