Description
Gladiolus ‘Quepo’ is a stunning variety that captivates with its creamy white petals, accented by soft blush-pink hues and delicate ruffling, offering a look that is both elegant and refreshing. This variety is perfect for borders, cutting gardens, or summer displays, as it brings a light and airy feel to any planting scheme. Reaching a height of 90–120 cm, its tall flower spikes emerge from upright, sword-like green foliage, providing height and balance within the garden. Blooming from July to September, ‘Quepo’ delivers a refined presence that pairs beautifully with a variety of companion plants.
This variety thrives in full sun and well-drained, fertile soil, requiring minimal effort for graceful, long-lasting blooms. The flowers open sequentially from the bottom of the stem upwards, ensuring a prolonged display of elegance. Gladiolus ‘Quepo’ is equally stunning in the garden and as a cut flower, where its soft tones add an understated sophistication to indoor arrangements.
