Wait a minute!! I thought iris virus was what all of US were stricken
with, and there is no known cure!! The only way to treat it is to buy
more and more irises to at least keep it at bay. When that stops having
the desired effect, then the next step is to try hybridizing. Strictly
an experimental treatment, but certainly well worth trying!!
