Stiff, upright stems of large, deep red, gladiolus-like flowers in August and September above narrow, mid-green leaves.

Perfect for a sheltered sunny, moist but well-drained border, they make excellent cut flowers. - Garden care: Apply lots of well-rotted garden compost or manure when planting. Water during dry spells and deadhead regularly. After flowering remove the faded flowerspikes and protect the crown of the plant with a deep, dry winter mulch. Lift and divide congested plants every two or three years in spring.
