Planted about 80 gladiola bulbs this spring with blood meal. The soil had a
lot of cow manure and mushroom mulish.
They are real tall and have a lots of rust on the blooms.
None have matured thus far.
We live in south central Texas -- Willis-Conroe-Houston area
Any suggestions?


Hello, Louis. Someone may be able to help you but you won't get a great
deal of USA oriented help here because this is a UK group. Have you tried
posting to rec.gardens which is a US centred group?
