Gladiolus is a popular variety of gladiola, or “glads” for short. The name comes from the Latin word ‘glandis’ meaning a secretion or excretion. It was originally called this because its flowers are surrounded by droplets of liquid (a type of nectar produced on the plant’s glandular trichomes). On some occasions when these drops form at night and become cooler, dew collects on them in clusters that resemble individual flowers opening one after another with their heads up to catch more dew during mornings hours.

Gladiolus flowers when they are in the ground, but if you want to force them to bloom, you can use a variety of methods.
