Mine look like that too Angie D, usually you can feel the flower coming up thru' the stem just before it appears. It's a bit early I think. :0)

Mine look like that, too - except the dwarf ones, which are in flower at the moment.

There are lots of different gladioli and their flowering time can be slightly earlier or later - also, local conditions make a difference. Mine haven't flowered yet and I wouldn't expect them to before the end of July, so don't worry too much.
