Canna rust + garlic?

9 years ago

I planted, several years ago, cannas in a quite moist area and of course developed canna rust that is severe. It's okay because because we were ready to switch that garden so I'm not too torn up. I'd like to plant garlic in this location but being a bulb I am wondering if the canna rust will affect the garlic plants? Any ideas?

From everything I've observed and read, rust is plant specific. Since garlic and canna aren't related, you don't need to worry.

In general I find garlic to be quite trouble-free to grow.
