I similarly use sphagnum moss to rescue corms and EE tubers that show rot, or are having issues, because its airy and sterile, antifungal, and antibacterial. It works great to just rescue the corms and they root fast and rot usually stops, but once the corm starts actively growing, the sphagnum cannot maintain moisture levels for the plant and it has to be placed in soil. The perlite should work to just root the corms.
