Alcie:

I think Rimmer was correct in saying that a cold snap could have caused the leaf die back.

Hello Arnold,

This is all a little embarrassing.  When digging through the plants to get
a picture of the culprit bugs, I learned that most of the "bugs" were dried
seedpods from the crape myrtle tree that is overhead.  However, I did find
the bug in the attached picture hidden in the mix.

This all started because I noticed my fritillarias dying.  They are the two
plants with the yellowing leaves in the center of the attached picture.
