mouldy Iris winogradowii

Hi:
In Junos it is very easy to obtain new bulbs from their roots. Each
complete fleshy root will produce a new bulb at the point the root was
attached to the original bulb. Of course the main bulb is not very happy
with the proceeding. But of Reticulatas the only propagation method known is
that mentioned by Dennis; reticulatas are notorious for developing fatal
fungal spots. Formerly it was controlled by giving the dormant bulbs a
formaldehide bath, that was replaced with Benlate that cured it completely
but now Benlate is forbidden.
Regards
Alberto
