Joshua, I'm sorry about the infection that destroyed many of your lilies. Since you are moving into a new house have you perhaps considered destroying your entire collection and starting again? I know this sounds awful, but if you bring virus-infected plants into a new home you will create a huge problem especially since now some bulbs will be directly in the ground. My advice would be to re-grow all your hybrids and species from seed and buy commercial hybrids again. Throw out all the pink lilies. And of course if you have enough space in the garden in the new house on one side plant all the lilies that you have re-grown from seed, and on the other side hybrids that you buy again (because unfortunately they can come infected).
