    Hi
    We recently had a powerful wind storm. Now my yarrow plants and dianthus (I have several areas of each) are completely flattened and resting sideways on the ground. What should I do? Should I cut them off, will they reflower this summer?

    Wait a week and see if they stand up on their own.
    Then cut off any broken or flattened stems.
