Mine got rust this year too but it doesn't seem to have reached the bulbs and we still got a good harvest. I'll be saving the biggest bulbs for seed stock as normal. The variety we grow, Iberian Wight, is quite early (we harvested 3 days ago as the stems were flopping) so the rust doesn't have much time to get really bad. RHS say rust is worse on soils high in nitrogen and low in potassium so maybe it's worth giving a high potassium feed in early spring?
