Hi Carol Ann
Sounds like you've developed a severe case of 'iris virus'. No know cure.
The only treatment is to keep buying more irises. Sounds like they will be
estatic in your growing conitiions.
Have Fun

Where we have a nice crisp frost this moring, hope it's not been heavy
enough to damage our wonderful show of blooms. Have to wait till it gets
light.
