I planted my gladioli too close together - in a pot.

Spellbound
12 years ago

I'm not sure what I should do. The pot is about 24" across and I had planted 5 I think, with some annual seeds and squirrels came and dug up everything. I thought they had eaten all the gladioli, so I planted more and now I have 10 growing in the same pot. I don't know if I should remove some of them and transplant, if transplanting will kill them, if removing some will kill those that stay because it will have disturbed their roots... Should I leave them? Fertilize more? Please let me know how to make my glads happy!

For the record, I don't see any signs of stress yet. They're about 8" tall now.
