Gladiolus flowers need constant attention to remain healthy and bright. Make sure that they get at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day. Water every few days but ensure that the soil is dry in between watering to avoid rot. Sow a balanced plant food after every few weeks in the growing season. Cutting away withered flowers promotes new flowers and makes the plant appear clean. Once in blossom, allow the foliage to fade away naturally then in colder climates, dig up corms and store them and replant in the following season.
