Seedfork said:... ideas on how the hail would have damaged the not yet visible scapes, or do you have another explanation for the difference in the growth of the two beds?When plants are stressed they often abort their flowers. The shortened scapes might be a symptom of the effects of incomplete/partial decisions to abort the scapes (due to the stress of the hail and associated weather) that were then reversed. On the other hand I have seen scapes blooming on fans that have lost all their leaves by natural aging/summer dormancy.
