Gladiolus 'Mauve Muse' has softly ruffled mauve and lavender blooms that lighten toward the centre, so the florets seem to glow from within.
At 3-4ft., it's shorter than most glads and easier to fit into mixed borders. It blooms early and lasts well in the vase.
Use it in borders or a cutting garden. Plant corms in spring after frost and lift them in fall.
