Every so often scapes will do crazy things like this. I will bet that next year it will be back to normal. I've had the same thing happen in my garden.

I had a Sum and Substance do this, was normal the next year.

Years ago saw a Sum & Substance in Indianapolis with a 4 ft tall fasciated bloom; the scape was over 1 inch thick, harder than a broomstick!

Hi Ethan - I had a hosta only push up a flower scape - no other leaves - a few years ago. I cut it off and put it in a vase to enjoy and my hosta then leafed out. I remember someone here had a good theory of why this happens...I'll try to find that thread for you.

That would be great :) - My grandmother's yard seems to produce a lot of abnormal plants so this hasn't ever been the first ha!

I also had a fasciated scape last year on 'Zebra Stripes'. So far looks normal.
