Indian Summer

Cut
Ideal stem, leaf, and spike proportions
Efficient and productive
Strong vase life
XXL flowers
Indian Summer is part of the Floreals product group. This group consists of varieties with large spikes (more than 50% of the stem is made up of spike), a compact length, and slim leaves below the lowermost bud. These varieties are also selected for vase life. In production, gladioli from the Floreals group are efficient and productive, thanks to a relatively short forcing time, uniform flowering, and a low loss percentage. Indian Summer is resistant to disease, heat, and bright sunlight. Indian Summer's spike length makes it stand out. Indian Summer is popular among retail flower growers, thanks to its efficiency (uniform and low loss %) and color. Indian Summer can be used for red, brown, and orange in a mix, which increases flexibility in compiling mixes for customers. The photos of this variety will be supplemented and improved next summer with the flowers from our show garden for a clearer and more beautiful image.
