Anner,
Last weekend we noticed little brown seed-like things on some of the
leaves, but the cotton specks are dotted lightly on some of the leaves, not
at the base of the fan....so now I am confused. The tips of the leaves are
yellow and brown, some leaves fall over and when I tug on them they just
come right off the rhizome....I have seen nothing at the soil line. Could
this be something else or just the beginning of the virus/whatever?? Would
it hurt to just be on the safe side and put that terraclor on them anyway???
BTW, anything I put in the search engine on the archives like 'crown rot',
'crown and rot', 'fungicide' comes back with 0 matches...that can't be, can
it?
