Variety traits
Gladiolus L.
Gladiolus height is a key morphometric parameter, measured from the soil surface to the top of the inflorescence, which determines the aesthetic appeal and suitability of a cultivar for cut flowers.
In the reference 95 varieties crop Gladiolus, where this is mentioned in the description.
Height values depend on the cultivar group: low-growing miniature hybrids reach 50–60 cm, primulinus hybrids reach 60–80 cm, and modern large-flowered hybrids often vary from 100 to 180 cm. For tall cultivars, the strength of the flower stalk becomes a critically important characteristic, as it must support heavy inflorescences with 20–26 buds without lodging.
This trait is closely linked to agronomic factors: the size of the planting material, moisture availability, and temperature conditions. Adverse conditions, such as high temperatures with water deficiency or poor drainage, cause the flower stalks to become stunted and reduce plant height relative to the cultivar standard.
