think this must be what happens when d.regia catches a frost and has not formed its winter bud,   main growth point turned black but all is not lost as three or four new growth points are emerging ,i have another that also went black  and hoping it will come back from its roots,a shame they got to be a good size last year  flowerstalkvft12102012512_zps17e01a20.jp

Thanks. I didnt know about the flower colors. But i know othello are always lime green, even under massive lighting. For myself, i prefer the 'typical' genus, with deep red color !
