Acidanthera murielae

Abyssinian gladiolus, (Acidanthera murielae syn. Gladiolus murielae), is an elegant gladiolus, bearing spikes of fragrant white flowers with a central maroon blotch. Providing movement and light to a border, it’s best planted in groups where it can drift through the border, or in containers where their fragrant flowers can be best appreciated.

Grow Gladiolus murielae in well-drained soil in full sun. Water well during the growing season and stake plants before the flower spike emerges. Although perennial, it’s best treated as an annual and replaced every year.
