I have nearly 75 giant liriope plants that boarder my foundation plantings in our front yard. They have been struggling with crown rot most of the summer. I have read all that i can find about what causes this problem, but no ideas or hope that i can save these plants. Has anyone used any fungicide that has helped with this disease? Not all of the plants are infected,and none of them have died yet. I am picking off the affected leaves and removing them from the area by throwing them in plastic bags in the garbage.Any suggestions?
Liriope crown rot is affecting many of my plants.Is there a fungicide that will help?
My boss (Nursery owner) swears by the use of LIME - she pelts the affected plants with the powder, leaves it on the plant for a few hours in the cooler part of the day, then squirts the lime off with water, making sure she get all the lime off. She treats many plants for rust, mealy bug, just about anything and it works!!
