More On-line Information on Clivia

Hi David and all,
I have a page in CliviaNet on pests and diseases of Clivia. You can find
it by going to http://www.clivianet.org/JimShields.html and then selecting
the link to "Diseases and Pests of Clivia."
I'm also working on a similar page for my garden information site that will
be similar but perhaps a bit more specific. Still under construction.....
......
I don't recall seeing any information on that red/orange scorch the
Clivias leaf gets...what is it a fungus...anyway maybe it would be an idea
to add that if its not already there.
......
Stagnospora is the red fungal disease that afflicts so many plants in the
Amaryllidaceae (Amaryllis Family). It is worst on Hippeastrum, but also
hits Crinum hard. I have seen it a few times on Clivia, but not so
commonly here as in Hippeastrum.
Best regards,
