Glads

Email received recently

Belle,
I planted glads a few weeks ago and they haven't come up.  My friends are already sprouting.  what could be the problem?

Dig them up and replant - you probably planted them upside down and they will sprout to the center of the earth.  No, glad bulbs can be tricky.  Make sure the web side is down and the crown up.  Plant is fertile soil theat has been well worked - soil should be loose and not compacted. 

Good luck!
