I know species glad was fragrant but without large and fancy flowers which are present in modern hybird. Still i wonder not even a single fragrant glad i have seen in lahore. Check out this link http://www.zone10.com/gladiolus-for-fragrance.html anybody tried the fragrant ones?

I can get fragrant glad seeds, can it be grown from seeds?

Yes you are right Khabbab there is one species night scented Glad with small creamy flowers.i grew it once in Abootabad but i quit it.the reason was simple the flowers were not beautiful & hudge as the modern hybrids.an old flower lover gave it to me.from seed Glad will flower after 3 years.

I d not want to try it from seed as I cannot wait for 3 years to see what glad smells like.You are also impatient if I am not wrong.

Oh yes Adnan i also dont like to grow bulbs from seeds because of the time factor.
