Hostas - the new weed?

Seriously? Can they get any bigger? I actually dug out this one because it was so huge and I had to jump on the shovel to split it. It split into 5 or 6 hostas, I don't remember exactly. I dug up two more and figured I save the front ones for next year.

This one is coming out next year!!

The other thing I don't like about gardening is how quickly they die. This is a beautiful iris and they looked so nice for about a week. Then rain came and they're all dead.

Thankfully, this little pot always has flowers in bloom and I love it. If I didn't have to plant them every year, I would have a whole yard full of flowers like the ones below:
