Gladiolus is one of the four most popular summer-flowering bulbs. People use them either for the garden or as a cut flower in the summer months. The gladioli we know are all hybrids, and have been in culture since 1841. It is difficult to identify and count original species, but some botanists believe there are close to 300. Gladiolus are easy to hybridize, so new plants appear every year as old ones decline in popularity. A lot of the common large-flowering varieties were hybridized after 1940 in England and the Netherlands.

The butterfly-types were introduced in 1951, and over the last twenty years American hybrids have become more common.
