Flowering geophytes are important ornamental or florist crops that mainly have tuberous roots, tuberous stems, true tuber and rhizomes or corms. The global trade of florists' crops including flowering geophytes is projected to be more than $100 billion annually. Plant pathogens have a direct impact on the production and marketability of flowering geophytes. In this chapter, important flowering geophytes viz., caladium, cyclamen, daffodils, gladiolus, lily, tuberose and tulip and their major diseases are described with special emphasis on disease aetiology, symptoms/signs, biology, disease cycle and management.
