The varieties in the Biondly product group are grown organically, in accordance with SKAL standards.

Floreals – The very best quality (cut-flower sales)
These varieties have been bred to meet the most stringent criteria in the industry. The Floreals are unique because of their compact height of 110 to 130 cm. A minimum of 50% of the stems is made up of spike and short leaves. Floreals are available in all colors. They have an amazing shelf life and vase life, hold up wonderfully in cold stores, and are resistant to diseases in the field. The Floreals are the absolute showpieces of our cultivation and are the product of over 30 years of breeding.

The varieties in the Multicoloros group are some of the liveliest we have in our range. They vary in color from soft and subtle combinations to bold contrasts. We offer this variety in the form of dry sales as well as for cut-flower cultivation. Multicoloros are selected based on growers’ demands. That means these are varieties and bulbs you can rely on.

Gigantus – XXL-sized flowers that command the attention (dry sales)
As their name implies, these gladioli boast extra-large flowers. When our gladioli bloomed in our show garden in 2022, we decided to go out into the field and measure the flowers. That’s how we discovered that some varieties produced much larger flowers. We started developing just those varieties, which has resulted in our Gigantus line. Their flowers measure at least 16 cm in size, with at least 20 enormous flowers on one stem. These are true eye-catchers!
Gladdies – Shorter-stemmed gladioli for perfect bouquets (cut-flower sales)
These gladioli are of a compact size and especially convenient as cut flowers. At 60 to 80 cm tall, they are perfect for any vase or bouquet. Thanks to stems that are considerably shorter than your average gladiolus, the handling and logistics cost of these varieties is a lot lower. Learn more.
