bulb / corm / tuber
Gladiolus alatus is a broadleaf deciduous bulb / corm / tuber with green foliage. In spring orange flowers emerge. Attracts hummingbirds. Grows well with sun and low water. Drought tolerant once established. Prefers to be dry in summer, dry when dormant. Does well in gritty and well-drained soil. A good option if you're seeking something verticillium wilt resistant.
