I'm doing a lot of cutting back now - fighting the leaf spot. Thinking of hiring someone to help me.
Just the one bed is affected, but it's got 100 or so irises in it! I did some rudimentary cleanup after bloom
season, but left some still-green long leaves, some on the ground. That was a mistake. We've had quite a bit of rain.

Yesterday I got an acupuncture treatment to relieve some of the pain in my shoulders. Seems to have helped some.
My new gardening shears are great!
