| Do gladiolus plants produce seed? Can you cross pollinate gladiolus and get different colors? If gladiolus don't make seed then how do people breed new colors? |

| good luck the problem i had ... in crossing things.. not glads in particular... is the year or 3 for the seed to develop the corm.. to actually end up flowering ... especially if you ant to keep track of your crosses ... [that equates to whether i would have a 2 or 3 year attention span.. lol] on the other hand.. if you just want to dedicate a small section of garden.. and just throw seeds there... just have fun ... ken |
