I try to keep my iris clumps under control--I don't like them more than 18 inches across. I spent this summer rearranging and giving extra iris away. The iris clumps are actually more than that apart since they have daylilies and other perennials between them. When they are in bloom, they just seem to take over the beds. Here is a March view of my "Cupid" bed. The daylilies are still mulched but the iris are sending up new growth.
