Hi All,


I'm new to this forum and have tried searching but couldn't find
anything similar....


So I recently moved into a house from a flat and went gardening crazy.
I planted 3 canna lily bulbs in early march and believed I left a big
space in the middle.  I went to plant a shrub today between them but
couldn't remember exactly how far apart the canna's were...


I tried to carefully scratch the surface (like an archaeologist!) to see
if the canna's were nearby...  In my attempts to see where the gap was I
have managed to knock the tips off 2 of the new canna shoots.  There was
another shot on one of the bulbs but now I worry I have killed the bulbs
for this year...


Is the damage terminal?  Or is there hope they may survive?  I didn't
know the entire shoots off just the tips. Very disappointed with myself
lol!


Thank you all in advance!

Chase
