Wrecked !!

My beautiful new Wisteria. Last nights storm along with the torrential rain have removed all of the flowers. Never mind, only a year to wait and they will be back again.

Oh dear ER it is a shame when that happens.
My petunias look very bedraggled but at least I can remove the battered flowers and more will come.

That's terrible EZ.

Nature is weird. It creates all this lovely stuff then destroys it.

Re: Wrecked !!

You are lucky to have flowers on a new Wisteria EZ, I'm just about ready to give up on mine four flowers the first year and I was pleased but hardly anything since and it's in its fifth year now... no idea what I do wrong.

No storms in my part of Yorkshire, fingers crossed we missed them

It says about needing sun in that link I put on, Muddy.
Have a peak, see if it's any help.
Apparently some also take many years before they will flower.
