While I have been gardening for a few years I still consider myself a novice. I keep things simple and just wondering if there are any other steps I can take to keep this under control:

from my blog:

Mr. Roberts is gone, GONE! the other iris close to it looked a bit "stained" and I dug around a little and my fingers got very black. Looked it up and it must be borers. Never had'em before...I found the mostly deteriorated rhizomes of Mr. Roberts and got rid of them. Checked the rhizomes of Gingerbread and cleaned it up a little before replanting. Crossing fingers.
