Hi all, Pieter van der Walt asked about treating Stagnospora infections in Scadoxus. Benlate worked very well; now, we use thiophanate-methyl. Probably any systemic fungicide would serve. It hits our bulbs mainly in unusually wet weather. If the infection persists, a regular regimen of spraying every two weeks and of alternating fungicides regularly should eventually enable the bulb to recover. In severely infected plants, cut away the worst affected parts and dowse the stumps with diluted hydrogen peroxide before starting the fungicide sprays.
