Sharon are you saying this garden sulfur helped get rid of leaf spot. I
would think there wouldn't be any odour to the rhizomes of the Iris by
mixing it in the soil. Did you notice any odour. I would like to find
something that would help with leaf spot and rot. Thanks for the info..... >>
It appeared to be effective in combating leaf spot, or I wouldn't have
continued to use it -- but readily admit that was decades ago. I did trim
the affected foliage first, then had to hold my breath while dusting sulfur
on the trimmed fans. The "haircut" plus sulfur treatment did seem to be
effective -- and I don't recall any lingering odors. Can't say how much the
lack of rot can be attributed to the cultivars, the raised beds, or the
sulfur treatment.
