Re: Louisiana Iris, Daylily foilage

     After the extremely cold weather of the last two weeks followed by
the warm-up, leaves on some of the clumps of the above have turned white
and have a mushy texture.  This is something new for me as this condition
did not exist in my former garden which was 125 miles to the south.

I've seen this, also.  I don't do anything about it, however. I don't think
it turns brown, but also doesn't seem to hurt anything.  It seems to me
that if you want to, you could clean it off, which you will certainly do
when it warms up enough to get out there.  I think it is leaves rotting, 
but doesn't hurt the rhizomes here in Buffalo, New York where everything
is covered in ice.
