Gladiolus grandiflorus L. genotypes were evaluated for growth and floral parameters in Eastern Ghats of TamilNadu, under Yercaud conditions. Significant differences were recorded for all traits studied. Among 42 genotypesevaluated, ‘Pusa Shagun’ and ‘Pusa Swarnima’ recorded quality spikes with higher vase life indicating their suitabilityfor use in floral arrangement, while, genotypes like ‘Thumbolina’, ‘Priscilla’ and ‘Candyman’ were found superior incharacters like corm number, corm weight and corm diameter. Taking into account various growth and floral charactersof the genotypes studied, Pusa Swarnima, Pusa Shagun, Thumbolina, Priscilla and Candyman can be recommendedfor cut-flower production in the Eastern Ghats of Tamil Nadu.
