Dan,
Well mine wasn't due to a hose, but I think an ole
neighborhood cat making his bed for the night in my
iris bed!! My tallest TB in the garden and it was bent
over to the point of breaking off. It had one bloom
and 6 buds and I rushed it in the house and they have
all finally bloomed and that was over 8 days ago! Darn
Cat!
Oh well I got to marvel at my beauty every night
before bed!
