Another update. . . The Yellow Buttons has Erwinia rot through and through, there is no saving that plant. I feel like crying right now. Oh well, at least it wasn't months until I noticed, and it had spread to other plants. Silken, do you know the email of whatever her name was that was selling there? I hope I can get my money back.

See my PM. I'm sure it will work out with a refund.

Can someone tell me what Erwinia would look like. I bought several plants too, but they look lovely at the moment!

Well I described it to you in the PM, but I will say it here too. The plant had a solid black area at the base of one of the p'bulbs, and a few black spots on a few others. The best way to find out if it is Erwinia is cutting through the rhizome. Infected areas will have a purple ring around the rhizome. That is also a good way to tell how far it has spread, keep cutting p'bulbs of until you get a clean rhizome. Erwinia starts at the base of the plant, such as the rhizome or the roots, and then will spread through the rhizome, and then eventually up the p'bulbs.
