I would say one of these G. patersoniae, G.bullatus or G. rogersii

Fermi,
 Is Gladiolus gracilis growing fast?
 I sowed the seeds around January. 4 germinated  immediately and some are already making me a second leaf!
 it changes from Gladiolus watermeyerii, which still only gives me a single cylindrical leaf after 3 years! ::)

Hi Véronique,
I sowed the seeds in 2010 and I think the first flowers were in 2015; I think it has flowered each year since then,
cheers
