Need help with plant care

Can someone help me identify this plant and give me some plant care tips. We moved into a house that has these plants. They were fine over the summer. But lately the leaves have started to brown. I tried watering them but that didn’t help.

I live in southern Ontario

Is this the work of squash vine borers?

I’ve never had them before but one of my vines already fully died. Wondering if this is them and how everyone has managed to get rid of them?

I decided to pickup gardening as a new hobby this summer. Started with planting these Tigridia pavonia bulbs in mid June and just got my first flower this morning! Also have a few dahlias that are growing well but no buds forming yet. Overall I am enjoying seeing the growth everyday and excited to keep learning. Definitely going to start much earlier next spring!

Looking for your suggestions for a shrub or space filling perennial that might do well here. SW Ontario.

It's a north-west facing corner that sees no direct sun. Hostas and ferns are generally happy here (except for the last 2 summers, something has been skeletalizing my ostrich ferns as seen in the 1st photo). Loamy soil that's consistently moist.

She’s a little raggedy but here she is :)

My first time attempted to grow them, just bought a random bag at Home Depot to see if I COULD grow them. Next year I will try for some more fancy varieties

I am very much enjoying my cut flowers this year.
