Plant Moonlight Shadow corms in spring after the final frost, positioning them 4-6 inches deep with the pointed end facing up and spaced 4-6 inches apart. These gladioli thrive in full sun locations with well-drained, fertile soil. They bloom from early to late summer, with staggered plantings extending the display season. In zones 3-7, lift corms after first frost for winter storage; in zones 8-10, they can remain in-ground with protective mulch.
