When I had that problem I left them alone. They came back the next year as they were suppose to. Had not problem at all. (Round-up was my problem.)

I found the tag under one of the rhizomes. It is supposed to be Summer Green Shadows. I told hubby what you said and he told me he may have gotten fertilizer for the mountain laurels too close or the weed killer on the drive too close to the edge. (He isn't supposed to get close to the sides with that!)
Sooooo....I guess we now have a picture of what SGS looks like from chemicals in the ground! I am just amazed that the irises right next to it aren't damaged. They are so close together I have to thin them this fall!
So, what do I do now? Any way to get it to revert back??? TY Debbie

I've also seen this sort of thing from fertilizer burn. Too much chemical fertilizer next to rhizome. Possible chemical drift from neighbors..
Or if a brand new plant, had exposure to chemical before you got it.
Never seen this without it being some sort of chemical damage.
See if later flowers open normally

It looks like a chemical damaged flower. Round up can do this sort of damage.
