hi all, I live in Montana, zone 5. I have some iris's that were big and beautiful and full of flowers ready to bloom. A couple hours ago, they were completely destroyed by golf ball size hail. every flower stalk broken off and gone. most of the leaves shredded.
Will these plants recover and look better as the summer goes on? I'm not expecting any more flowers to come up, but will the plant recover or should I just cut it down and call it a loss for the year? (to avoid looking at my beat up shredded plants all summer)
Thanks.
