 When I moved the Godzilla from the ground after it bloomed, it
 was to a big pot, then I moved it to the pan, when I moved it
 the 2nd time, I noticed a bit of fungus like stuff on the
 underside, so I did a fast bleach dip and put it in the pan.
 When I checked them, the smaller was soild but the bigger feelt
 mushie, so I pulled it out and YUK. I pulled off the dead leaves
 and that were I found the magit inside. I had gotten this Rzh
 from a Iris growers catalog two years ago (Back on Plantation Rd
 in Hawaii) and it came with me from there and I don't belive
 there's any borers here in the desert. I think the work was fly
 magits, as the flys are awefully around here.
