I mentioned on another thread that most of the 800 established cv's here have stunted scapes and I lost 38. Some cvs were reduced to pencil thin fans. Last week should have been peak and I only had 28 or so in bloom here in 7A.

Over the winter we had 6 ice storms within 5 weeks and a hailstorm May 21. Hail was the size of golf balls that dented cars. I really don't know which caused the stunted scapes or maybe both events did.

I'm wondering if ice affects the resting buds in winter??
