This was looking beautiful until the cold winds hit it, I've a few plants looking this unhappy after it. Do I leave it or crop the flowers off? #advice

Personally I'd cut it back the damaged stems, there still looks to be a lot that's untouched 🤔

Looks like the winds dried it out. Give it water or perhaps replant in full shade. I found that they don't like the soil to dry out and like cool shade. This spot looks a bit too sunny for them.

I agree, cut out those that are damaged so all the recovery goes into those that remain 💪

@ublaszko it is shady, I think I just took that when the sun was on it, it’s in the shade of the hedge and was happy there until the cold wind hit it. I’ve watered it again (we’ve had 1 day of rain in 2 months now) and I’ll cut it back today. Thanks Urzsula, Mark and Jane. Fingers crossed it recovers @pelly @solly1961

Mine has been in flower for 13 months so I'm sure yours will flower again after a haircut.

Wow 13 months! Solidly? @ublaszko

Yep, non stop. Even in the depth of winter. The previous year they only stopped flowering because of the beast from the east.
