Hi:  I am a 3 year resident of Florida (Venice, west coast)(zone 9b) and
trying to learn how to garden down here.  Last fall I planted (which I have
never had before) some tall bearded iris (Beverly Sills reblooming) and Purple
de Oro day lilies.  They have all come up and most have flowered beautifully -
but . . . 

1)  the leaves are now turning yellow from the tips back down to
the bulb - can't get answers from local master gardener site ... what do I
need to do to fix this?

2)  there were some critters (bugs/beetle types) in a
few of the flower pockets (don't know what they are called) and I scooped them
out and squished them (ugh!) - but I haven't seen any since.  

We are in our
rainy season now and all seem to be ok except for the yellowing of the leaves.
I would appreciate any help.  The Beverly Sills flowers are gorgeous!

Thanks
for being there for me.
