Mike,
Sure sounds like crown rot to me.

The first signs of this were the browning at the tips of the leaves, like
typical
crown rot. Then within a days time, the clump seemed to fall open, exposing
the
center as the leaves continues to rot. As I was pulling the leaves off, there
was
a granular substance down around the base of the petioles. It looked like
birdseed. I thought it might be slow release fertilizer, but after closer
examination, it was some type of seed.
