Shape and sizeThe best bulbs for gladiolus are oblate and medium-sized. If the bulb is flat, it means it has degenerated or even aged and is not suitable for planting; if the bulb is too large, although it will produce more sprouts, it will consume a lot of nutrients and will not bloom well. Whether there are pests and diseasesChoose bulbs that have no brown or black spots, no mildew, no rot, and no insect bites. Check whether the bud eye and bottom are damagedSince the eye is the part where the bulb germinates after planting, and the bottom of the bulb is where the roots germinate, these two parts cannot be damaged, otherwise it will affect rooting and germination, and the plant cannot grow and develop normally. The variety should be pureThere are many types of gladiolus. When choosing, you should choose purebreds and try not to choose hybrids, otherwise you will not get the desired branches. If you want a specific flower color, you can choose it based on the bulb. For yellow or orange flowers, the base of the bulb will appear yellow; for red or pink flowers, the base of the bulb will appear pink; for white or light-colored flowers, the bulb will also be lighter in color. |
