What's the problem with my iris?

Here's what is going on with my bearded iris... I've had alot of flower stalks come up over the past few weeks and got really excited because I was going to have beautiful iris blooming soon in my garden. Then disappointment set in... the buds died turning a papery texture, every single bloom except for one so far. What could be causing this? I've checked for bugs and the entire plant seems healthy, just dying buds! We have had lots of rain this spring(but my iris beds drain well) and a few cold snaps could this be the cause? How cold does it have to get before it will cause damage to blooms? It makes me think it is the weather b/c it's not just in one bed it's iris all over my yard (which is five acres). Any help will be appreciated :)
