After all my dahlias rotted in the ground over winter last year, I have
made an effort to dig up and store any summer bulbs that I have found
as I have been going along, but I'm not entirely sure what to do with
the gladioli. Some of them are still flowering, and a lot are still
with green leaf. Do I pull them and leave them to dry out a bit then
chop the leaves off, or leave them in the ground, or what?

I pulled up 3 bulbs this weekend - 1 from Benjamin's plot, which is
about the size it went in, and 2 from the blueberry "really lovely
soil" patch, which are 3 times the size, and have a whole crop of
bulblets hanging off them!!
