I wouldn't worry too much! Gladiolus are 'corms' not bulbs meaning they will replace themselves.
The top growth will naturally grow upwards and seek light and eventually flower, what I am not quite so sure about is what will happen to the newly formed corm.
Perhaps when you lift them you might inform us all if they grew naturally i.e. were they upside down?
