I found a seed pod on one of my gladioli .  What is the best way to grow these  ?
  ALSO
Is it true that the gladioli bulbs have to be dug up and stored somewhere for winter  ?  Can someone enlighten me please  ?    I,d hate to lose them . Thankyou .

They are best dug and dried... I leave them in and they decline and eventually disappear...  :-X

Thanks Saddad  , I will pull all of them up  ,as soon as they,ve finished flowering . Lovely red ones .

Has anyone saved  and grown the seeds  ?
