This is true Bill, but I am at the end of the bloom and there are very few
left to open! If it had happened 2 weeks ago I don't think I would have been
as upset. >>
I hoped someone else might mention this so I would not have to be a harbinger
of ickiness, but here goes:
If you have had hail damage to the flowers, you have had hail damage to the
foliage, and if you have had hail damage to the foliage, I believe you may
now have inhanced susceptibility to leaf spot. You will want to keep a close
eye on the foliage and be prepared to act.
If you have had any spot in your garden this year, or you had some last year.
I'd do some preventive spraying. I say this from the perspective of one who
sprays very little
in the garden.
