Mine are taller than me -- but I haven't had to do anything with them,

I had to look this up because of a large bed of them in this house we
bought last year.  They are certainly crowded this summer.  In the
Time Life Electronic Encyclopedia it says that in zones 7-10 (where
are you now?) they can be left in the ground over winter and dig and
reset every third year.  Propagate by dividing rhizomes in spring.
Divide rhizomes (fleshy underground stems) by taking off side shoots
by hand and cutting the clump into pieces cleanly with a sharp knife.
Discard the old centres.
The same routine as with iris.
